T.O.P
He "tops" that list.
Fun fact: He just became the most followed K-pop artist on Instagram thanks to Squid Game.

But he didn't get followers for being a k-pop artist but actor. I bet all those people don't even know he's musician too. I have the same opinion for eunwoo, he's followed for his acting, not music.
I personally would count only people who are known as kpop artists. And imo A-listers are only bts and bp and g-dragon.

Oh, true. I was actually half-joking with my answer because T.O.P is basically a meme everywhere these days.

Where are you getting that from? According to Kpop-Radar, he's only the 25th most followed K-pop Instagram account.

If we define "A-list" as requiring global recognition, then we can say only that BLACKPINK and BTS are A-list idols. However, if we base the definition on South Korea’s own standards where idols are not seen as niche musicians or groups then GD, BIGBANG, and Taeyeon would still be considered A-list today. Additionally, as a group BTS and BLACKPINK also fall into the A-list category, even with the presence of many new-generation idol groups in the industry

Yet another unquantifiable list.. at best the most consensus would be for
And again it depends on A-list where?
The above applies for Korea.
There are contexts where SKZ are the most known in Kpop and contexts where nobody has heard of IU.
So Korea is the easiest to guess:
G-Dragon, IU
Then group members from Bigbang (3), SNSD(8), BTS, BP
TWICE, EXO and a lot of seniors from Seo Taiji, Rain, Hyori etc.,

Then by your definition Plave is also A-List artists?
Cuz they charted all their songs on Melon and pretty high too.

Me not knowing too

If I'm not wrong it happened with D4, KTL, The Album and BP, but all I remember is seeing updates of the others tracks also charting
