The K-pop fandom on Tumblr cannot be messed with. The love for K-pop is so off the charts, it’s the only music genre that exists as its own Fandometrics list. To celebrate the genre and its ultra-passionate community, we analyzed all the tags from January 1st, 2017 through August 16th, 2017 to determine the most talked about groups, idols, and ships. Fighting!
If you’ve been following along since we introduced the K-pop list on May 1st, 2017, you know that BTS has been No. 1 since the very beginning. Furthermore, #BTS was the eighth highest trending tag on all of Tumblr during this six month period. That’s more popular than any TV show, film, or video game. The next highest trending K-pop-related term was #bangtan, at No. 17.
Though our weekly list is made up of both solo artists and groups, we focused solely on the bands for this In Depth (but we see you, G-Dragon 👀).
During this 228 day period, these 30 groups garnered a combined 200 million engagements. We noticed that boy groups are more popular, nabbing 90% of the conversation. K.A.R.D represents the only co-ed group on the list. The full list below:
BTS | 40.10%
EXO | 12.46%
GOT7 | 7.19%
SEVENTEEN | 6.54%

Prompts about the 7 deadly sins? Thank you so much!!
Lust
“You want too much, it’s taking over your life.”
“You’re killing yourself, Ben. How can you have those thoughts without even knowing her?”
“Close your mouth, you’ll catch flies. Seriously, you’ve been staring at him like he’s a piece of meat and you’re a starved wolf.”
Gluttony
“You seriously just threw out half your meal,” he said shaking his head. “People are starving and you just threw away half of a fifty-dollar meal.”
“You’re one person, you don’t need $200 worth of groceries.”
“Instead of having a five course meal, why don’t you just get a salad?”
Greed
“You’re a con! You’re stealing from people!”
“Those handbags aren’t even real. You need money that bad?”
“One day, all these possessions aren’t gonna matter. When you’re on your death bed and no one’s there, you’ll know why. No one likes a greedy man.”
Sloth
“The most dangerous man is one who’s not scared of God.”
“I didn’t see you at the food drive this year. What happened?”
“Sometimes you gotta go through some shit to get to the good parts in life. And when you refuse to do that, don’t be surprised when people lost interest in you.”
Wrath
“She got the promotion over you. Can you stop thinking that she has this, like, personal vendetta against you?”
“You spend so much time hating. Is your heart even capable of loving anymore?”
“Passive aggressiveness is still aggressiveness. Be happy for once. You’d be surprised how much better you’ll feel.”
Envy
“Quit wanting to be someone you’re not. If you stop trying to be like them, maybe you’ll actually find yourself.”
“You’re just too jealous of people. I think it’s better if we both just called it quits. This isn’t going to work.”
“You’re happy when people fail! You’re upset when they succeed! And you complain that you’re not happy!”
Pride
“It’s okay to be proud of yourself, but when you can’t be proud of the people you love, you make yourself out to be someone you’re not.”
“You’re not god, Matt. Stop walking around like we’re supposed to bow at your feet.”
“The hardest thing to do is get rid of that awful pride you have. Just for a day, pretend you’re like the rest of us. Pretend you’re no better, no richer, not more talented. See how you feel at the end of the day.”
That day not today 🤭
Hahaha love this!
I’ve been doing a series of comics about men being deceived by makeup.
