It's not a company stans thing when one is free and the other not (without their main source of income)

I'm a sone, not an sm stan and even if that was free i didn't watch it live

I Love King Taeyeon, but no thanks

So in a year we are again at how sm groups are not real popular.

LSM must be happy because in the last years we were discussing the failure of the company

With all that fake money of fake NCT sales they built a fake kwangya reality

Be natural

Take my money, i'm ready

I'm casual listener of both but i choose BTS, i'm too old to stan but i have bought some of their 2015-2018 album because they were simply awesome

I think on the 17th i will be the one that "cant control myself"

That was an... interesting list, no arguing there, who can argue with a Drew Original ranking

But about popularity, few important things to keep in mind.

Boy groups do better with hardcore K-pop stans, girl groups do better with the general public (=not only K-pop stans but everyone).

Popularity isn't about popularity solely among K-pop fans, but about popularity in general, with the public.

So... since we're talking about every group's peak in popularity and Gallup's still the closest, most objective measure of popularity, the resulting list would be like this:

1. Girls Generation (#1 in Gallup, 29.8%)

2. EXO (#4 in Gallup, 9.4%)

3. H.O.T.

4. S.E.S.

5. Red Velvet (#6 in Gallup, 7.8%)

6. Aespa (#6 in Gallup, 6.5%)

7. TVXQ (#9 in Gallup)

8. Super Junior (#10 in Gallup, 4.6%)

9. SHINee (#18 in Gallup)

10. f(x)

11. NCT

12. Shinhwa

13. CSJH The Grace

14 & 15 Sugar & Milk

Most difficult to place were the 1st gen groups that didn't have a Gallup ranking. They're listed by how popular they were compared with other boy groups and girl groups of their time.

The groups that didn't have a Gallup ranking in the years that Gallup existed, were ranked based who had more top charting songs (in digitals).

As expected SNSD

That was and still be awesome

Taeyeon is the idol of idols tbh. Her career either as a group or solo are legendary enough on their own but she has then both to her name.

Yeah when weekend came out there were some people saying they thought she was a rookie. And with her never ageing looks and amazing pink hair (best look of kpop 2021) it's no surprise, she really can pass off as a newcomer.

The kid leader, but for me she is King Taeyeon

This album is perfection

Quote from unbannBLACPINK

mine too

sadly i havent been able to connect with most of her other songs but i keep searching for some good ones

Better babe ?

Finally my King is coming back

I voted for replay, sherlock, why so serious, view, married to the music

I smell some jelousy

Let him do his weird (awesome) solo stuff so then he can create something like better babe for Taeyeon again

Hitchiker is a Genius
