ChoA spoke up to clarify misunderstandings people may have regarding AOA's share of earnings.

Recently, Seolhyun created a hot topic of discussion when she claimed that AOA's earnings are divided equally among the members, even individual earnings from her solo promotions. She went on to explain that her earnings from all of her solo promotions, including endorsement deals, pictorials, acting roles, etc, are equally shared with the members.

On the January 13 broadcast of 'Bae Sung Jae's Ten', ChoA spoke up about AOA's share of earnings in an attempt to clarify. She said, "There's something that I want to say. There was a topic that became a hot issue after it was broadcasted. It was claimed that we equally share Seolhyun's earnings but we asked Seolhyun, and it seemed like she didn't know everything in detail because she's still young."

She continued, "It's not true. I can't explain in detail because it's about our contract but we can't be creating controversies. We know that Seolhyun has worked hard. It won't be right to share it equally."

The useless shithead suits at FNC should be putting out fires, not ChoA. Now those worthless pieces of shit are dumping their job on her also? What the fuck exactly do the shitbirds of management do to earn their cut of AOA's work? They don't manage very well, they don't engage the media and defend their people... seems like ChoA does all that.

knetz need to stop assuming things and making the rest of aoa look bad. like i understand they love seolhyun but they should know better. ofc the other girls aren't just gonna embezzle all the money she made. like y'all calm tf down. the other girls already dont have as many fans, just support them pls and dont be taking any opportunity to say they're leeching off of seolhyun or whatever. aoa has a good friendship, its not like that k? :)

It's a shame how Seolhyun's fanbase has to make the rest of the girls look like jealous leechers, because not even they know how simple revenue sharing works, and can't take stand any sort of critique, no matter how slight, of Seolhyun. It's true that Seolhyun has contributed the most in promotions. But I'll also add that that's due to FNC being terrible at promoting their idols, because they assume that Seolhyun is the only one people want to see. Her fanbase is going to attack me now and badmouth Choa and the other girls, but that's because they're Seolhyun fans, and not AOA fans. Seolhyun is great. Her fans, not so much.

Unfortunately this is true

Doesn't her clarification basically mean FNC takes everything if Seolhyun shot all those CFs and still can't afford a house and yet she doesn't share her income with the members?

Most likely AOA has a bad contract where the company takes most of the profits. But there are alot of expenses for idols especially if you have a lot of members. After school performed in korea and japan for half a year and had a #2 hit single "Bang" and after all the expenses (wardrobe, travel, recording, food, and breaking even) each member only got around 308 USD. Her members complained that if they worked part time at a convenience store for 6 months they would've made more.

didn't really like AOA anyways

prob what Seolhyun mean is she got the most percentage of her earnings and the other member got "equal" percentage from her percentage, for example she got 40% and the rest 6 members got 10%. There's nothing new under the sun, I hope this won't be the same problem like Secret.

She really shit the bed here. Not willing to say anything in detail? Now she made Seolhyun into a liar, herself into a sly bitch and her company really fucking shady. ....... Gotta love these "clarifications" from bimbo idols.
