Most Popular KPOP Girl Groups Each Year in Korea 1997-2022

[@soneparadise2007]

2024: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqi2fnuZi9KBjLs Most popular kpop girl groups in South Korea over the past 25 years. This is not international popularity but domestic (Korean) popularity. Everything is my opinion, but I tried to be as accurate as possible. I stopped ranking SNSD after 2015 because they are past the point of being ranked.

During those 5 years Hwayung also know as "the snake" kept playing victim without giving any details just increasing the bad comments against T-ARA and getting this as a push up for her new Actress Carrier, after the truth was knowed by everyone she started to get call for acting jobs.

[@6catalina0]

Hmm, I discovered K-pop in 2019, and immediately, my two favorites were EXID and Red Velvet. Then, it was Apink, Loona, Twice, WJSN the Cosmic girls, Oh My Girl, IU, April, and Dia. I like the 3rd generation K-pop girl groups, but I have an extensive collection including the 1st and 2nd generation SES, Finkl, Girls Generation, Miss A, Beste, Sistar, and Brown Eyed Girls. But my favorite became the Lovelyz, who I found a month before they disbanded. I can spend my whole day listening to them. The Lovelyz are the only Girl Group that I have every version of their albums, their concerts, all member signed albums and a light stick. They are the only girl group that I have an album saved and an album to flip through and look at. With a few exceptions, I could probably sell my entire K-pop album collection. The Lovelyz and The Beatles albums are the ones that I would take with me if I was ever stuck on a desert island.

[@almostatami]

I don't mean to get sentimental but this video made me tear up a bit. I got into kpop around the beginning of 2nd gen but there are so many prior groups that I never even realized I was already listening to as a tiny kid. I'm in awe of seeing how much kpop has evolved over the years and though I get a little apprehensive with the market saturation and erratic fan culture,I do love seeing the growth in popularity. Its like watching an old friend mature into something even greater. The nostalgia is beating the crap out of my heart right now!! tysm!😭

the fall of wonder girls really needs to be analyzed, starting from 2009 that's when they went to america, hopefully someone makes a deep dive video into it.

[@uc6758]

I mean its kinda simple, they went to US, snsd rising to the stardom with Gee and Genie. SK only have one spot for nations girlgroup and snsd occupy thay spot while WG trying for US market. And when theyre back, snsd already dominated the SK market, WG didnt even have a chance, plus there are lot of rising gg like Fx and 2ne1.

[@maliser8]

@@uc6758 Yeah it was honestly just too early to go to the US, globalization and social media, which has really helped kpop expand, was not what it is today. But also from what I understand songs after their return, like 2 different tears, Be My Baby, Like this, were still moderate hits, just not giant ones like their previous ones, and as you said other GGs had taken over. But I'm also glad that they took their time, rebranded, and released Reboot, one of my all time favourite kpop albums, and then had a big hit with Why so Lonely.

[@ziggystardusk]

@@jorgeenriqueponce2978 2NE1 really only excelled in the music side of the entertainment industry, and that's on YG for restricting their promotion to just music shows, concerts etc. The reason why Koreans regard T-ara above because they excelled not only in music, but they are also sought after for CFs, dramas/movies, reality TVs which basically give them a bigger presence in the industry over 2NE1. Also, most groups from 2nd generation were venturing either into Japan/China, which T-ara again had better results in those 2 markets over 2NE1.

CSJH the grace was constantly in the top from 2005 to 2007 ❤ I miss them so much 😢❤

[@_Just_Another_Guy]

They were supposed to be TVXQ's sister band. But with TVXQ's scandal (and JYJ leaving), SMent also mishandled CSJH, totally gave up on them, and just focused on debuting SNSD instead (which in hindsight proved a really good investment decision on their part).

[@ultratwin]

They certainly found their place, albeit not here in Korea. Despite fantastic vocal chops, there was a lot of misguided A&R/pre-production SM that led to their lackluster debut singles (not to mention how their 1집 promotion related to their intended target audiences in Asia) and a string of barely-charting tunes that followed, just the Korean public swiftly took notice of the degree that they sadly could not live up to the early 2nd gen hype and bombshell success that TVXQ had produced. In the long run and in view of the domestic market (Japan is another story), it was an unfortunate waste of talent.

The rankings are based on the group’s popularity not the song’s popularity. Just want to avoid any confusion because if this was based on a song’s popularity Roly-Poly would be #1 in 2011.

I have always loved T-ARA, and I love reminiscing about the past through the clips in this video, but being reminded again of how T-ARA went from SECOND to 12TH in one year just because of the lies spewed to the public by that snake Hwayoung bothered me again, ngl. Great video though.

[@soneparadise2007]

Thank you! Yes T-ARA’s decline was really unfortunate. I still can’t believe a fabricated scandal did so much damage to their career. Their post scandal songs like Sexy Love, Number Nine, Do You Know Me, and Sugar Free are really good and would have been big hits if the scandal didn’t happen. Eunjung and Jiyeon would have had a much bigger acting career too.

2021 was Aespa year let’s be real, they had the biggest hit that year, same with 2017 which should’ve be red velvet.

[@soneparadise2007]

Biggest hit does not mean most popular group. This is a video ranking the most groups. aespa and RV being #2 in 2021 and 2017 respectively is already super high and impressive! miss A’s Bad Girl Good Girl was the biggest hit of 2010, T-ARA’s Roly-Poly was the biggest hit of 2011, Brave Girls’ Rollin was the biggest hit of 2021. None of those groups were the most popular groups that year. Crayon Pop’s Bar Bar Bar was one of the biggest hits of 2013 and I didn’t even include them in this list.

[@94mp99]

@@soneparadise2007 Er, no, 2021 was indeed aespa's year, they're literally everywhere. Everybody's main topic about girl group in 2021 was aespa, Karina and Winter are super popular in that year.

⁠​⁠@@94mp99Yes I am well aware of aespa’s 2021 popularity. They really shot up like a rocket that year. However, they were still second to Blackpink. There was nothing any girl group could have done to knock BP from that #1 spot in 2021. Them being second is already very impressive!!! aespa was perhaps the most trendy girl group of 2021 (them or Brave Girls). The group that exploded in popularity. But the most popular would still be BP.

[@ludwigneigl891]

@@soneparadise2007 if you mean kpop fans who buy merch and posting on social media than you are probably right with blackpink. If we look at people listen to music than aespa beat blackpink that year. And Brave Girls had even more listenings than blackpink and aespa combined. With We ride, rollin and cmbr - 3 songs in the top 10. i think that was only beaten later by newjeans or one of the other new groups. im not so familiar with 4th gen. of course this was only for korea. internationally blackpink was allways far ahead.

[@soneparadise2007]

@@ludwigneigl891 There is more to popularity than music. As a group, Blackpink was more popular in Korea in 2021 than everyone else. Musically, yes I do agree. aespa and Brave Girls (and Oh My Girl) were the strongest girl groups digitally in 2021. However, digital performance is just one metric and doesn’t mean determine overall popularity. Random example but Britney Spears did pretty badly on the US Billboard Hot 100 charts for most of her peak (1999-2004). She was probably the most famous female singer in the entire world at that time.

Wow! Some of these K-pop girl groups, I have never heard of. Having found K-pop on KZbin in 2019, my first favorites were EXID and Red Velvet. Then, I found Apink. It seemed like every album that I purchased was an Apink album. Then, a month before they were disbanded, I found the Lovelyz Winterland 2 concert. Using the KZbin music app, I listened to all of the Lovelyz albums. By cash or credit, I purchased the entire Lovelyz album and concert catalog. The Lovelyz are the only group that I own a light stick. I can understand the glowing comments that other K-pop fans write about their favorite girl groups because I feel the same way about my favorite, the Lovelyz.
