So I just read the January idol brand recognition thingy & to my surprise jimin is still #1 denying Jennie the top spot despite not doing literally anything note worthy throughout the month while Jennie's ranking is due to her birthday trends & her YT channel gift to blinks which logically all generated alot of discussion.
It's clear by now jimins constant ranking at #1 is due to artificial boosting & system gaming by army & likewise its not far fetched(its facts imo) that Sd ranking is also artificially boosted by army
While completely legal & all, it's the reason why I like many kpop stans can't really accept SD claim to be the one & only kpop song in Korea.
