I am! justkidding
On the 17th of August, Japan BigLobe Music released the results of a four-day poll. 33,090 people voted for the most popular Kpop group in Japan and coming up in first was SNSD with 61.1% (20,212) of the votes. In second with 29% (9598 votes) were the Wonder Girls, followed by Super Junior with 5.2% (1717 votes), SHINee with 2.9% (944) and BEAST with 1.3% (417 votes).
According to Biglobe Music, “So Nyeo Shi Dae has earned the popularity amongst the young females in their 10s~20s. They get good reviews for their song, dance and fashion style. Already, many fans have gotten to know about So Nyeo Shi Dae through internet or from broadcasts shows. Because their style are liked, they also received the admiration from fellow young females. They are also liked for their features on various broadcast variety shows.”
With their DVD rising up on the Oricon charts and their fanbase continually growing, SNSD will definitely be successful in Japan. Only a week left for their Japan showcase!
But, Japan promos doesn’t mean Korea is ever gonna be withered of soshi fervor! According to the latest Sisa Journal survey:
2010 Most influential entertainers in Korea
1. Rain 19.2%
2. Yoo JaeSuk 16.3%
3. Kang HoDong 16%
4. Bae YongJoon 10%
5. Kim JeDong 8%
6. SNSD 7.1%
7. Lee Hyori 6.8%
8. Jang DongGun 6.5%
9. Park JinYoung 4.6%
10. An SungGi 4.3%
This is really impressive, considering that the survey takes in all entertainers, not just idol groups, etc. Plus, this is not an internet popularity poll. Instead it’s one of the most respected professional surveys in Korea (not saying all internet polls aren’t legit) . Major newsmagazine Sisa Journal had conducted this survey for about twenty years now. They survey 1000 professionals from fields of academics, arts & culture, politicians, journalists, religious leaders, business executives and so on. Out of all kpop idol groups, only HOT (1999 & 2000) and GOD(2002) have previously made the list.

Wow, they even beat Lee Hyori in that survey!
And they dominated that Japanese poll. Soshi is definately on top!
You know, this type of thing doesn’t surprise me any more.
I don’t get why the South Korean government don’t just accept the inevitable and hand all power over to SNSD.
On a side note – can I has bigger picture? Please? They all look so damn hot.
your comment made me laugh really hard… but only because i agree… who wouldn’t follow the laws if they were set by 9 beautiful, dorky, funny, energetic girls???
Who can resist the power of 9…no one that’s for sure 🙂

Congrats to SNSD….but no TVXQ?……I think their more influential no offence, they should really be on that list……but congrats to snsd anyways ^^
it all depends on what the surveyors think and how they’ve impacted it hahah but i guess you can say it’s one’s opinion.
LOL I think alot of sones voted thats why. Too bad TVXQ arent active anymore :S People will forget about them now.. Atleast theres still SNSD ^^
hahaha no if youre talkin bout the most influential one..that was acutally done by a professional poll.

In ‘2010 Most influential entertainers in Korea’
SNSD are the only idol group!!!
OMGG!!! Our girls are soooo jjang!!
I am sooo proud! Lol. 😀
i agree that SNSD is influential, but i don’t know if they should be number one kpop group in Japan since they have yet to debut there, unless the list is for those who havent debuted, cos really DBSK or Big Bang should be number one.
I also think its not exactly just SNSD who is influential since all idol groups are fairly influential, also i think heard somewhere before that DBSK had made it on the list before as well…unless it was a different influential list.
yahhhhhh… are the GIRL’S the only group that belong in their? fighting of the 9… HWAITING!!!
As expected of snsd again !!! love them lots lots . not easy to make it to top 10 since it shows all entertainer . snsd fighting !! forever 9 !!

OMG, look at the second poll! They are the only idol group in the list! DAYUM!
Can’t wait for their debut! September, come fast!
