Honestly, I think excluding them in purpose it's what would actually be really ofensive. There are artists in that list who released only 1 album, others that released 2 or 3, artists that had only 1 bside, others that had 2, others that 10, 20, and others that had none. We have artists like Sunmi who charted with only 1 single song and 0 albums. Everyone had different release patterns, so if I were to think that way in order to make the list, it wouldn't even be able to exist in the first place.
And honestly, NewJeans topped the list with 4 songs released, if we didn't count the album points they would still be top 2 or 3. So I don't really think the release pattern or the amount of releases is a big issue, but actually how much the songs and albums released were well-received. You don't think it's unfair when BTS wins AOTY at the award shows, right? Even though they are beating actually new albums with an anthology of old songs. So how would it be unfair to count them on this list?
I love BTS and have total respect for them, this is why they are on the list just like every other artist with 10+ points. I'm sure if I intentionally excluded them, people would be even more confused. So they're on the list, just like everyone else :)

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...
The methodology was really simple, actually: we just counted whatever we could find.
Each and every credible website we could find on Google that created a ranking of k-pop made to the list, we also used general lists that charted k-pop songs, we counted all the lists that our friends saw and sent us, and the lists we intentionally searched for because we knew they already posted the ranking last year (like DAZED, for example). There are websites from multiple countries. South Korea, India, Philipines, Brazil, US, UK. Whatever we could find, we would count it. The only websites we intentionally discarded were the ones that didn't really have that much credibility, like some random blogs or websites like "the bias list". I don't know how my friend searched for the lists they found exactly, but I would just open google and put the terms like "best k-pop songs 2022" "best k-pop albums 2022" "best k-pop 2022" and filter to the results from december and january, and look through pages and pages to pick whatever we could find. I'm sure there are probably a few lists that we missed, since it is definitely NOT an easy task to search and count the huge amount of lists that you see in the first post on this thread, and not every list uses the same terms for the title, which makes it harder to find them on Google. But if there's any interesting list that you saw that we missed for this compilation, please send us so we can take notes and count it next year :)

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
Exactly!
Now that we know all the websites that release these lists, we know exactly where to look for it next year.
Looking forward to it already.

Why am i never surprised when this group is involved in this sort of shit?
I mean, the lack of beauty, talent and quality in their materials wasnt enough? Now they want to discriminate people for things that they cannot change?
wtf
and don't even come at me saying it was because of the company because they wrote the lyrics and if it were something good you guys would take credit as if they wrote the whole thing by themselves.
this is disgusting

if iKon has been failing this much, could you guys imagine how much we would laugh if some other groups that were present in the lineup rumours were participating? lmao i can only imagine
there is one in particular that unlike the groups that are actually in the lineup, I think they would be completely sustained by the big company's budget cause in matters of talent they would deliver complete mediocrity, as they do in most of their performances

The way I see it, it's really simple.
ENHYPEN is a way more better group, so it is more interesting to stan them.
And of course, the fact that they debuted through a survival show made them more popular, while TXT only swims in the wave of BTS's success and doesn't have an independent fanbase.
But I think TXT's comeback is going to sell more tho
