Glassdoor notes that the average salary for an MC in the United States is $95K per year. So, Wang also might have received a similar amount from the organizers for being the MC of their shows. Similarly, he might have added thousands of dollars to his bank balance as a co-host, cast member, and judge in numerous highly-rated South Korean shows.

Furthermore, as a rapper and dancer, Jackson Wang has released many record-breaking albums and singles to date, bagging several dollars in his increasing net worth. Some of Jackson Wang’s albums, along with the prices of their audio CDs, are as below.

Besides, some of his earnings are from his musical tours and live streamings around mainland China and other countries with his Got7 band members.

But ever since leaving JYP Entertainment along with other Got7 members in January 2021, he is operating his international activities. Recently, he made his U.S. late-night T.V. debut with his latest single, ‘LMLY,’ performing it live on CBS’ show, The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Income From His Record Label And Fashion Brand

Jackson Wang established his own international record label, ‘Team Wang,’ which conducts business in production, music, and artist management in 2017.

Some of the music released under Wang’s label has even won him one of the Billboard Emerging Artists titles in 2019. Recently, Team Wang partnered with Sublime Artist Agency for their promotions in South Korea.

According to Jackson Wang, he split his Team Wang’s profits with twenty-two employees. So, it makes it clear that he is making a lot of money from his record label. Moreover, unlike previous years, it seems like he does not need to split half of his year for his band, Got7. So, he might be giving almost seventy percent of his present time to his record label at the moment and probably, making more profit from it in current days.

Besides, some credit to Jackson Wang’s net worth goes to his merchandise division,’ Team Wang Design,’ which he founded in 2020. The same year, he introduced the fashion collection named Cookies – The Original as a part of his fashion label. From the beginning, Wang has worked as its creative director and lead designer. His label has also collaborated with many other prestigious brands like Ray-Ban, Super X, Fendi, and Monet.

In June 2019, the well-known brand Fendi launched a limited edition velvet collection entitled ‘Fendi X Jackson Wang Capsule Collection.’ As a designer, Wang designed its clothes, shoes, and accessories, which were sold soon after the launch and then released globally in July of the same year.
