It is unlikely to see any group or a solo idol that came from the Eastern specifically in Asia to generate a lot of money. However, this group is extremely unique because they are the only Koreans and Asians to be included on the Forbes' list of Top 100 "The World's Highest-Paid Celebrities.
Many fans and non-fans expressed their impression on the group's money-generating capability because five years ago, it is very unlikely that an artist from Asia will get on the list. Together with the Chinese Action Star Jackie Chan, they broke the belief that Asians cannot join this list.
Although the group generated a lot of money, they are known for donating in the less fortunate. Their most notable donation is on the UNICEF.
