Comparison between production costs of SKY Castle and other dramas


Pann: Production cost of Sky Castle

1. [+448, -27] Mr. Sunshine was worth its production cost. It was like a movie.

2. [+265, -2] So shocking... I thought Sky Castle's $7.5M was a lot but compared to other dramas, it's the lowest... Production costs are this much? I didn't know anything about it so I didn't expect the costs to be this much ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Where do the money even come from?

3. [+216, -5] Just because the production cost is big, it doesn't mean that it's a good drama.

4. [+131, -5] Mr. Sunshine was worth the money. Sky Castle and 100 Days My Prince did amazingly well for its cheap cost ㅋㅋ

5. [+122, -9] Mr. Sunshine was like a movie since its first episode with all the money spent on it ㅋㅋ

6. [+92, -59] It's random but Alhambra is a really fun drama, please make sure to check it out.

7. [+82, -1] Sky Castle and 100 Days My Prince hit daebak... With $7.5M and $8M, they managed to hit ratings of 19% and 14%.

8. [+57, -0] What's more surprising is that more than half of the production costs are the actors' starring fees. I'm surprised with Sky Castle's $7.5M because the amazing actors in the drama have low starring fees.

9. [+50, -0] For Mr. Sunshine, $10M of the $43M was for Lee Byung Hun's starring fee + other actors' fees + Kim Eun Sook writer's script ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

10. [+40, -1] More than half of the production costs are for the huge starring fees of the actors who are the main characters. That's why talented actors need to act as the sub-leads like Sky Castle for the quality to go up. Alhambra must pay so much for its CG.
