BTS Holds Firm in Netizen Awards Rankings Despite Solo Activities

BTS Maintains Top 10 Spot in Netizen Awards

On May 30, 2025, at 5:18 PM KST, global K-pop sensation BTS ranked 8th in the Netizen Awards’ Best Group poll with 563 votes (0.8%), demonstrating their unwavering popularity despite the group’s members currently focusing on solo endeavors.

Cross-Genre Competition, One K-pop Titan

The top five positions are currently dominated by classical crossover groups such as Fortena, Forte di Quattro, Liberante, La Poem, and Forestella. Among these acts, BTS stands out as the sole K-pop idol group in the Top 10—a striking testament to their international stature and loyal fanbase. While others battle within a similar genre, BTS maintains their rank due to dedicated ARMY support.

ARMY’s Loyalty Shows No Sign of Fading

Despite pursuing individual activities, the group continues to receive unwavering support from ARMY, their global fanbase. Even with monthly reshuffles in the ranking system, BTS has consistently made the cut—proving their position is not just about numbers but about deep-rooted, continuing global impact.

Though currently trailing slightly behind the leaders, many believe a concentrated voting effort by fans could drastically change the outcome. With the final voting round for June just ahead, expectations for a full-scale comeback in the rankings are high.

Potential for K-pop Dominance in Final Vote

If ARMY rallies once again, BTS could reclaim the Best Group title, reinforcing the dominance of K-pop on a multicultural stage and proving once more that their global influence is anything but fleeting.
