The estimated earnings of RESCENE Woni’s YouTube channel have become a hot topic.
Woni’s YouTube channel currently has almost 2 million subscribers. The most viewed video, “I brought a gal to Geoje,” features fellow member Minami dressed as a gyaru traveling with Woni to Geoje, gaining popularity.
According to YouTube statistics sites, a channel with around 1.8 million subscribers typically earns an estimated monthly income of about ₩50.0 million KRW (about $36,200 USD), attracting attention.
The group’s exposure through YouTube eventually led to a 2000% increase in Melon streams and a 6550% increase in search volume, creating the reverse hit phenomenon of RESCENE’s “Love Attack.”
Netizens commented on Woni’s channel, saying things like, “Woni’s channel probably spends a lot on studio, production, and labor costs, so it might not make huge profits. The real money is from endorsements after gaining recognition,” “Smart move,” “I hope RESCENE gets their settlement payments soon,” “Even without YouTube earnings, the promotional effect is strong,” “Once recognition increases, making money is instant,” “Woni is smart,” “50 million won is less than I expected,” and “The PD who discovered RESCENE should earn more money.“
