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.

So, roughly 7500 dollars from each episode. That’s 10x more than what I make working 20h/week as system analyst for the Brazilian govt - 4500 reais, or roughly 780 dollars per month.
