I’m a Thai actor. I can’t speak for all actors, but I get paid ~250k baht per episode for a lakorn (TV drama). A typical lakorn has ~15 episodes. I usually do 1 per year. Add to that the salary I get from the TV network to stay with them.

    messages and calls constantly from someone I didn’t know asking why I wasn’t working.

    Do you think they were literally outsourcing worker spying and harassment? That’d be a pretty ridiculous low and yet wouldn’t surprise me anymore…

      That honestly wouldn’t suprise me at all, although I was almost never in the office so I didn’t know most of the people there outside of my small circle and a few higher ups. I do remember asking a friend who was in the office more if this person was legit and she said she’d never seen her but has gotten a lot of emails from her about “not working”.
