Becoming a successful K-pop star necessitates a great deal of dedication and sacrifice. Rather than relying on their celebrity in the entertainment industry, these K-pop singers have launched their businesses. We take a look at five business-savvy K-pop stars who have launched their businesses. Jin is a member of BTS, perhaps the world’s most popular boy band right now, but did you know he also owns a restaurant?

G-Dragon is unquestionably a visionary artist and fashion icon. In 2016, he created his fashion label, Peaceminusone.
