Kim Dae-ho discussed the signing bonus after declaring himself a freelancer.
On the 26th, during the broadcast of MBC's 'Radio Star,' Kim Dae-ho, who declared himself a freelancer from MBC, shared candid thoughts about the signing bonus.
Kim Dae-ho discussed the signing bonus from his agency while declaring himself a freelancer. He drew attention by saying, "It's an amount that's hard for an office worker to receive." When asked which is greater between the severance pay and the signing bonus, he honestly replied, "The signing bonus is more."
Kim Dae-ho said, "I thought I just had to submit my resignation letter and leave, but it's not that easy. I have to return everything I got from MBC. I returned the laptop after backing it up and checking the devices. The phone was also a company phone, so I switched it back to my own."
Kim Dae-ho stated, "I returned my employee ID and company credit card. Since I'm an announcer, I received funds for broadcasting through the company card. For radio, only my voice is heard, so food expenses were covered, while for TV, since my face appears, there were funds for that as well."
Kim Dae-ho noted, "When I returned my employee ID upon leaving, I had to write my name, contact information, and reason to enter MBC. Even though my work at the company has ended, I still felt a sense of continued tension."
Kim Dae-ho remarked, "Now, the on and off switch is clear. If I don't have a schedule tomorrow, I can immediately switch to rest mode." Kim Gura advised, "Over time, freelancers will become anxious. Freelancers have no safety net."
Kim Dae-ho mentioned, "My manager contacts me. My phone has been buzzing nonstop for two years, and when it stops, I start to worry that I might not have any work." He also added, "The expense for hair and makeup turned out to be more than expected. I talked to the production team and received it at the MBC makeup room."
Kim Dae-ho said, "It's good when a manager helps manage the schedule. I used to write it down on paper and carry it around. If I write it incorrectly, it can get messy. Adjusting the schedule was challenging." Lee Soo-geun responded, "I noticed the waiting room was different since we shared it earlier. He was calling his manager to see if he could have some dumplings," which made everyone laugh.
