Wen Junhui, more commonly known as Jun, rose to popularity after making his debut as the lead dancer and sub-vocalist of the thirteen-member group, SEVENTEEN, back in May 2015 under Pledis Entertainment. Since then, SEVENTEEN has become one of the top-performing and best-selling groups in the K-Pop industry.
Aside from having activities as a SEVENTEEN member, Jun also promotes as a solo artist. With that, have you ever wondered how much Jun has earned throughout his career so far? Keep on reading to find out!
SEVENTEEN Jun Net Worth
According to reports such as Net Worth Spot, SEVENTEEN as a whole group has an estimated net worth of around $12.36 million USD as of December 2021. However, reports say that their net worth could go as high as $17.3 million USD. This makes the "Rock With You" hitmakers one of the top-performing boy groups today.
When it comes to their individual net worths, the members have a lower yet sizeable earnings - given the fact that SEVENTEEN's revenue is divided among 13 members and with their company.
Based on reports, Jun has an estimated net worth of around $1.5 million USD, and it is highly likely that he shares the same figures as his fellow SEVENTEEN members.

How Did SEVENTEEN Jun Accumulate His Net Worth
Prior to debuting with SEVENTEEN, Jun already had a hand in the entertainment industry, and was already starring in commercials at the ripe age of two-years-old. As a child, he also worked as a child actor for movies and shows in China and Hong Kong, allowing Jun to build his credentials and experience, as well as earn in some way.
But just like most K-Pop idols, Jun earned most of his net worth through his activities and promotions as a SEVENTEEN member, such as the revenues the group earns through their music releases, TV appearances, and endorsement deals, among others.
In fact, Net Worth Spot estimates that SEVENTEEN earns more than $5 million USD each year. However, with SEVENTEEN's recent successes from their music releases, it can be expected that their earnings this year are significantly higher.
As mentioned, SEVENTEEN is one of the top-performing and best-selling groups in the industry. In fact, they became quintuple million-sellers after their consecutive Korean album releases - "An Ode," "Heng:garæ," "Semicolon," "Your Choice," and "Attacca" - surpassed a million album sales and earning them a million certification from the Korea Music Copyright Association (KMCA).
In terms of his individual activities, Jun also earned by lending his voice for the OSTs of "The King: Eternal Monarch" and the Chinese drama "Seven Days."

Jun also released his own Chinese albums such as "Can You Sit By My Side," "Crow," and "Silent Boarding Gate," as well as sang cover songs on the show "Chao Yin Zhan Ji."
Jun is also credited by the KMCA as a lyricist, having written songs for SEVENTEEN.
Since 2002, Jun has been acting, and has mostly starred in Chinese films and dramas such as, "The Pye Dog," "The Legend Is Born: Ip Man," "My Mother," "Go! Go! Daddy," "Children's War," "Intouchable," and is currently filming for the 2021 film "Exclusive Fairytale."
Jun's individual activities, coupled with his promotions as SEVENTEEN, allowed him to earn the net worth he has today.
