After going his separate ways with his manager, Kris invested in several businesses, including a restaurant and an aesthetic clinic.
He knew of friends who made TW$80K – TW$120K (S$3.4K – $5.2K) from working full-time at a market and became interested in the venture.
He revealed they have been open for business for three months now, and averages TW$20K (S$850) in sales a month.
While acting offers are few and far between, Kris has yet to put his showbiz career behind him.
When the topic of “falling from fame” was brought up in an interview, Kris said: “I’m grown up now, and it’s time to live the life I want.”
Kris knows that many might think he is struggling financially, especially after they see him manning his stall.
He, however, remains positive. “I was never born rich. If I was, I wouldn’t have to enter showbiz at the age of 10.”
