Due to the difficulties in the reduction of production costs by the three broadcasting companies (KBS, MBC, SBS), the 'Infinity Challenge' members have very boldly volunteered to take a pay cut to save the company money.
MBC officials on May 1st announced, "'Infinity Challenge' members have taken a voluntary pay cut. The show program has reduced the internal production costs, and the members will share in the voluntary reduction."
Overall expenses of the program was reduced approximately 15% and the performers pay cut was taken from this reduction also.
The trio of broadcasting companies, suffering from the economic recession and crisis, decided to relieve the enormous production costs. The KBS show "Comedy Show Hee Hee Nak Nak" MC Nam Hee Suk, also too a 17% pay cut to help out his company. Lee Hwi Jae and Park Myung Soo also took a pay cut voluntarily. KBS2 "Happy Sunday" Kang Ho Dong took a 10% cut.
On the other hand, netizens are up in arms, yet again, and criticizing Korea's hardest working man, Lee Minho for indulging in a little luxury...just a little wagon to get him from point A to point B.
