Former US Teacher Appearing in Adult Content Says "Monthly Income of $760,000, Never Going Back"

Gave up teaching after adult content appearance revealed three years ago

"Paid off all family debts and student loans"

An American woman who had to leave her teaching job after it became known that she had participated in adult content expressed her satisfaction with her choice. She especially revealed that she struggled financially due to low wages during her teaching years, sparking public debate.

According to U.S. media reports including The New York Post on October 5 (local time), broadcaster Brianna Koplage, a former teacher, claimed in a recent interview with Fox News that her family's life has changed thanks to her career in the adult content industry. She stated, "My best performance was a monthly income of 550,000 dollars (about 760 million won)."

Koplage worked as an English teacher at St. Clair High School in Franklin County, Missouri. However, in 2023, after it was revealed that she appeared in adult content, she was suspended from her duties and subsequently resigned from her teaching position.

Currently, it has been reported that her monthly income exceeds her annual salary as a teacher. When asked if she intended to return to teaching, Koplage firmly replied, "Absolutely not. I like that I can control my way of life, how I use my time, myself, and my business," emphasizing, "My family's life has also improved."

However, she questioned whether her resignation was justified, stating, "Professionals need to have a certain level of expertise, but technically, I didn’t break any rules." She went on to say, "It was more of a moral issue than that I did something wrong," and added, "There was no code of morality (as a teacher). Many people misunderstand and think I signed such a clause, but there was none," she repeatedly stressed.

After appearing in adult broadcasting, she explained, "I paid off all of my family's debts and fully repaid my remaining student loans," and added, "I also stopped buying groceries on credit cards." She continued, "I grew up quite poor as a child, so being able to take family trips or give my kids things I never had the chance to experience myself is truly valuable."

When asked what decision she would make if her child expressed the intention to pursue a similar path in the future, she avoided giving a direct answer. However, Koplage stated, "I want to raise a child without prejudice," and "I will provide all the accurate information." She added, "I would not encourage (my daughter) to go into such work," explaining, "Just as I want people to respect me, I simply want to offer the same level of respect in return."
