Compilation of Korean Acts on Year-End Lists in 2022: artists, albums and songs

Credits: my amazing friends who did everything alone: kevinism and gzbish who are not active here, but gave me permission to repost.

Methodology: It's the same as albumoftheyear.org

Sites:

Fandoms I think might be interested since the faves are on Top 10s

Quote from kingkook

Why do some artists have 0 points in the album column even though they did release an successful album last year?

It's not chart based, It's based on the album itself, how much the journalists like it.

And the fact some artists some have/don't have points on songs or albums, depend on if they appear or not on the lists.

Quote from gzbish

even though we searched up a lot, we let some lists pass... we are planning to do again for the 2023 lists, and we will be more careful to include all the lists with kpop acts

Thanks for posting it here, bestie

So proud of NewJeans and Seulgi for how much they were acclaimed

You guys did amazing. I wish I had this amount of patience.

Quote from gzbish

skz being on top10 for the 3 lists is a real flex, people still wanting to bad mouth they releases but they still highly acclaim

Some K-pop stans live in a bubble where everyone hates the music, what is not true.

I would say their music leaves an impression. Or you really like it or you don't. In between seems not common.

Interested to know the thought process behind including and excluding some list...

Like why pick CNN Philippine instead of other CNN region?

Are they the only CNN region that make the list?

Or why for Philippine country the list maker use CNN instead of music based media?

I'm choosing Philippine just for example btw...

It's ok to have doubts!

I suppose CNN Philippines was the only one that shared a list of their favorite songs and albums of the year. And the same for other lists that are from one specific country. Or at least what they could find out. But If you are aware of more, you can share! So when they make the lists again next year, they might include even more infos from more sites.
