There are many opinions about what the top groups are. However, the only ones we’ve come across that appear to have an objective basis are those created by the Korean Business Research Institute (KBRI). These rankings are determined through an analysis of the consumer participation, media coverage, interaction, and community indexes of various girl groups. The KBRI statistics are released monthly. Our analysis provides a broader and more balanced view by combining the monthly rankings into annual averages. The KBRI rankings are based on social media metrics only. To see an analysis of sales you should use the Gaon Music Charts.

This chart shows how the ranks of the current top 20 girl groups have changed in the near term.
The first column shows the difference in rank between the current month and the previous month. The next column shows the difference in rank between the current month and a half year ago.
Brave Girls has shown the largest increase moving up 2 positions since last month and 36 positions since half year ago. aespa continues its rise moving up 3 positions to 10th place since last month and up 10 positions from 20th place since half year ago. On the other hand, DreamCatcher, Apink and APRIL have shown the largest decrease in popularity each moving down 4 positions since half year ago. The popularity of the top 10 groups is remarkably stable. Five groups - BLACKPINK, TWICE, ITZY, Girls’ Generation and Lovelyz - have shown no change in rank during the past 6 months. The lower the rank, the more variable the rank distribution becomes.
