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.

Career advice:
Don’t wait a year or two to apply to other places if you know that you could get payed better in the future. Also, impostor syndrome is a real thing and employers know about it and use it agains you.
Money is not everything, but until you are done worrying about rent, car payment (required in most North American cities), student loan or whatever, don’t settle. No one on your company needs to know that you applied elsewhere. The people that matter will still keep in contact after you leave as they know it is for your benefit.
