The list you shared over here is made from the survey conducted by Ministry of culture, sports and tourism [MCST] and the Korean Foundation For International Cultural Exchange. Now, about JCW being mentioned in this list, well I have seen his name mentioned few times in the list thou. So, I wanted to know how these survey are done. SURVEY METHODOLOGY Sample Size : The survey typically involves 25,000 to 26,400 respondents from 26 to 28 country worldwide. “Meaning less than 1000 people per country ” Survey Period: The survey is conducted online over a period of about 20-30 days, usually in November or December. Saying or anyone believing that these survey are 100% accurate would be foolishness but they can give us an idea about what is popular and loved.
Now, the second thing you mentioned is about LMH being number 1. Well, he has been no. 1 on this list for about 12 years if am not wrong. Now, the thing is, it's not like we can say that LMH is not popular or loved bcs he is, specially because of boys over flowers and heirs. You also mentioned about it been a paid list. honestly speaking, it's better if we don't talk about something which we can't prove with evidence.. Honestly, I don't much care about these kind of list and would advise you the same. For LMH fans this list is a source of their happiness ☺️ that their oppa is at no.1, in the same manner the way richest kactor , highest paid kactor, most awarded kactor was the source of happiness for that cancelled guys fans. Specially, after the way LMH recent Kdrama flopped they atleast have this list so they can be happy.
Kdiddy lost 1.1 million followers on Instagram in less than a month... 21.2 million →20.1 million Kim Soo Hyun gained around 6.5 million plus followers after the release of Queen of Tears in the timespan of 1 year.. year 2024 brought him FAME year 2025 brought him SHAME
the problem with him doing so many dramas is the fact that we see him almost everywhere and it gets boring...…
Does Ji Chang Wook put you on gun point to watch his drama and how many project he did last year one was a movie and one main role in another one. Queen woo was just a special appearance. The worst of evil and Welcome to Samdal-ri were 2023 project and both are pretty popular one with good ratings elsewell and different genres meaning different audience and he has only one drama release this year.. And most important thing he act because he loves to act. Ratings,Money and Awards are all secondary thing to him and for I love to watch him act.
Do you have that much time? Don't you have a life?
Aww poor Kim Soo Hyun fan, I do have soo much time and a life too.. and you should also take out some time out of your busy life to protect your oppa.. he really needs support now.
There were some screenshots of kim sae ron saying that they were together for 5-6 years in her massages to KSH.…
the message in which she mentioned in detail about the 5-6 year relationship with Kim soo hyun was between her and her cousin.. But Kim Soo Hyun fans obviously don't take Kim Saeron words as facts..
