The September brand reputation rankings are in, and it’s BTS’ Jin who claimed the top spot! Based on an analysis of consumer participation, media coverage, and communication among 730 boy group members, the BTS member stood up from the rest of the K-pop scene!
Jin scored first with an impressive index of 2,949,770, thanks to his high-profile appearances, including his role as Gucci‘s global ambassador. His viral moments, like “Run Jin” and Super Tuna, contributed to his ranking. And with a 93% positivity rate, it’s no wonder he’s leading the pack. Last month, Cha Eun Woo topped the tally, making Jin a fresh face at the top spot.
