Which K-Pop groups do US fans tend to like the most? Having the biggest market for not just K-Pop but for music in general, it’s natural to be curious about what the American music listeners are listening to.
The South Korean government recently conducted a survey on which K-Pop idol groups are currently the most popular in the US.
And the results are actually quite interesting.
While it’s no surprise that some of the groups are on the list, there are a few that most people didn’t expect, due to the assumption that more younger generation idol groups might have made it on the list.
But the results also clearly show that veteran idol groups who are household names live up to their reputation as well. And, of course, some have also even generated a lot of noise in the US even before the likes ofย BTS.
You can check out the results below.
#2 PSY
#4 G-Dragon
#5 BoA
#6 SHINee
#7 BIGBANG
#8 Girls’ Generation
#9 EXO
