    Approved the thread.
  • probably commission a world-wide pollster event for that lol

  • bts maknae line


    if you're talking about outside the kpop sfere (locals knowing a name), it's probably jimin

    just from trending so much

  • i am tempted to name lisa but i would say taekook because of how many fans they have everywhere

  • You guys overestimate Lisa's popularity way too much. V from bts is easily the most popular one worldwide. Go check Google trends. Everyone around me is a fan of his and don't know anything about bts except butter.

  • Jungkook, I don't get why people say Lisa, I always thought Jennie was more popular internationally. Taehyung is also very popular as well.

    Lisa have the most ig followers, she went viral worldwide twice (her legs twitter meme and the crab dance), she is huge in China, her bside was a big hit among non kpop fans, and she create mass turmoil with her appearances even in fashion events even in Europe.

    So yeah she is absolutely the second most popular idol only behind Jungkook maybe. Jennie's networking skill make her look more popular but she's only more popular than Lisa in South Korea.

  • for people saying that we overestimate Lisa, NO OTHER KPOP IDOL MANAGED TO GO VIRAL WORLDWIDE SEVERAL TIMES AS HER.

    her legs going viral when no one outside of kpop sfere probably knew who they belonged to isn't really a measurement for her popularity. she's without a doubt the biggest female idol globally, but she really isn't touching bts' ml

    Lets not act like it was just her legs. The crab dance was a fever and so was her song Money. No other idol went viral like that.

  • Why are people mentioning Jimin? He's behind Jungkook and V.


    Obvious answer is Jungkook and (then) V.

    I want to add that Instagram numbers aren't proof of one's popularity. People who are into aesthetic are on insta, V having the most followers was expected. He's always going viral for his face. Three of my friends follow V and they don't care about BTS, they just love his face.

  • all the comments mentioning jungkook or v except 2 comments at best mentioning lisa that too humbly but sure that one pressed armpit has to say everyone is overestimating lisa. Pressed much. Also only place where Jennie is more popular than lisa is south korea.

    Isn't that what popularity means? Doesn't matter if most of his popularity has to do with his face. He's still popular!

    That's what popularity means. Doesn't mean what he's popular for. Trust me no one outside of fandom cares about the content bts put out. Jungkook got army but V has new fans /gp.

  • At the moment Lisa just because she has more reach. If Taehyung or Jungkook do solo things they'd be more popular

  • I've seen many times from TV shows, TV series even Simpson name drop Jungkook,

    I am too lazy to find receipt, but I've seen some share them on AKP main forum


    And from PTD Las Vegas concert, his name never not trending with millions mention every single day even after concert


    His popularity is no joke
