BEAST Included as One of the Favorite Idol Groups in Korea



Among the Korean general public, it is very common to take a poll that asks for participants to name their favorite singer or actor.  Recently, Korea’s Market and Research Survey Institute conducted one such survey from March 25-31 in 5 major cities: Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, and Daejeon.
1321 individuals took the survey who’s ages ranged from 13-65.  They were asked to name their favorite male singer, female singer, male actor, and female actor.  The response may surprise you!
The top ranked male singer is Lee Seung Gi with 14.3% of the votes, taking the victory from Big Bangwho had 12.9%.  Following Big Bang was 2PM with 10.9%, Kim Gun Mo with 7.3%, Yoon Do Hyunwith 7.3%, 2AM with 7%, Kim Bum Soo with 6.1%, Jung Yeob with 6.1%, B2ST with 5.5%, and Rain with 5.3%.
Although they were not on top, having voted still in the survey is such a breakthrough for an artist like them, who just debuted not too long ago.
