Boy group Big Bang and girl group SNSD topped the 2009 Soribada charts under the category of "most searched"! If you don't know, Soribada is the most used P2P music downloading program. In other words, it's the Korean version of Napster or Limewire. And from January 1 through December 23, the site monitors and logs all the key phrases and terms being searched to form a Top 10 List of the most searched artists. The data for the year has been reviewed and Soribada announced that Big Bang was the #1 most searched artist in 2009, which is quite surprising and amazing because they've spent a majority of their time in Japan rather than Korea. Big Bang was searched about 415,000 times with Lee Seung Chul coming second at 386,000 searches. SNSD took third place with 257,000 searches, but what's more noteworthy is that their track Gee was the #1 most searched song. Soribada expects Big Bang to win it again next year due to their comeback plans in Korea, but they say that girl groups may have trouble reaching the Top 10 in the new year due to many solo comebacks and debuts that are bound to amass a huge success. They said, "Next year, Lee Hyori will be finally releasing her album after 2 years and Jewelry's Park Jung Ah and Seon In Young are going solo so we're very eager for that." What do you think guys, this year has been a parade of group comebacks and debuts, but will 2010 be the time for solo artists to steal the spotlight?
