Wondering how much a K-pop artist earns? The girls of Orange Caramel dished out on their earnings on Mnet’s “Beatles Code 3D”.

When MC Jang Dong Min asked, "How do you live when you get paid every 6 months?" Raina answered, "That's why we live like beggars. We live like we're well off for two months and then live a bit difficultly for the remaining four.”

When asked about her first paycheck, Raina revealed, "I got about 7 million won (~ $6,700 USD). [Nana and Lizzy] got about 10 million won (~ $9,500 USD). Since we're in both Orange Caramel and After School, we get separate payments. We also receive individual profits from individual activities."

As for working with a whole new vibe with Orange Caramel, the members said, “It’s a bit comfortable going around separately from the unnies [in After School].”

Nana added, "We are close with and comfortable around the unnies, but seeing as that there is an age difference, we're always cautious around them." Raina continued, "I like Orange Caramel promotions better. The reason is because of favorable comments calling us cute and pretty. When promoting as After School, there are 8 members so [it’s hard to stand out]."
