Article: 'Radio Star' Jung Jun Ha "A top female SM star paid $20 in congratulatory money"

Source: Mydaily via Naver

Cultural break: In Korea, it's customary for guests at weddings or funerals to give money as a gift to the couple/families to help offset some of the costs of the event and to show your respect. Unless you're close friends, you're usually only required to pay as much as your meal at the buffet would cost. $50 is usually the bare minimum, and anything less is seen as disrespectful. It's also rude to gift a couple in even number amounts because even numbers mean a match has already been made whereas gifting in odd numbers gives the couple a chance to become whole together.

"She's a top star, a total top star, but she gave $20. She's from SM and I wonder if I need to go up to her and ask why. We're actually close. The person who collected the money is a relative and I almost suspected him of stealing some of it. I keep thinking about it whenever I see them."

1. [+3,612, -66] Might as well not have given anything if you're going to pay $20 ã…‹ã…‹

2. [+2,744, -87] $20 is harsh... ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ Even guests who aren't that close end up paying $50 at minimum. Poor college students who can't afford $50 usually end up going with a physical gift because it's too embarrassing paying anything less.. ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹

3. [+2,314, -36] Who is it, who is it, who is it

4. [+2,240, -46] I wonder who it is... if it's a top star, it closes the gap significantly..

5. [+1,974, -583] I trust the netizens to find out... I feel like it's a member of SNSD if it's a female

6. [+658, -42] A buffet meal at the Shilla Hotel costs over $100 per person, and she only paid $20? ã…‹ã…‹ Basically an indirect sign to never be friends again

7. [+524, -20] I'd ask why they only paid $20 in case there were any misunderstandings

8. [+526, -28] Seeing as how he's saying it outright on broadcast like this, he seems curious enough to want to know why himself. He's probably hoping that person will step forward and explain why ã…‹ã…‹

9. [+525, -45] It's not BoA or SNSD because neither are close enough with him to be invited to his wedding. The person's probably an SM C&C star.

10. [+362, -15] I understand how he feels... a close unni of mine only gave me $30 at my wedding when I gave her $150 in gifts for hers. I could accept $30 from someone I don't really know but $20 is even more ridiculous...

11. [+315, -29] BoA and SNSD didn't even attend the wedding

1. [+203, -18] Funny how he said it was probably a message for them to stop being friends ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹

2. [+181, -19] I highly doubt a top star paid only $20... Someone probably stole the money. He should just ask her straight up ã…‹ã…‹

3. [+156, -15] Maybe they thought they had two $50 bills but it ended up being two $10 bills?

4. [+47, -11] Kyuhyun asked if her last name was Bo and he brushed it off and changed topics.. It's probably BoA ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ He should just ask

5. [+32, -13] BoA?

6. [+19, -3] Who the f*ck would think paying $20 is okay unless they were crazy ã…¡ã…¡

7. [+16, -1] As if $20 wasn't bad enough, it's an even number. I'd be curious too if someone paid that. It's an awkward question to ask, though.

8. [+12, -11] Why'd that Kyuhyun guy have to mention BoA and get her needless hate. Jung Jun Ha gott married on May 20th and BoA was in Japan for a 50th anniversary live on the 20th and SMTOWN's LA concert right after on the 21st. Don't bring up unnecessary people into this.

I think it was a bit wrong of him to address that on a variety program......

 

 

 

So much social pressure in South Korea. People can come to my wedding and not give a present and I will not give a fuck. i also will not be serving them $100 a plate meals though lol....

wait but does this person have to have attended the wedding??? 

you can still give a present without attending the wedding.

 

but then i guess whats the point if its only worth $20


If it's not Boa and SNSD then it's probably someone from Fx? Idk any SM actresses that can be considered top star

GO ARA?????????????????????

Doesn't she gets lot of crap for being a bad actress or something and have lukewarm popularity? I seen knetz worried about hearing her doing reply, tho reception was good when it aired i guess...she got more popular after reply but i don't think she's THAT popular but it just depend on his standards of a "top star" *shrug*
