Netizens spark interest with maps of varying country sizes to show current girl group popularity

2NE1, 4minute, AOA, After School, Apink, Dal Shabet, EXID, f(x), Girl

Netizens on Instiz have released their take on girl group popularities at the current time by making a map in which the country size represents how popular each girl group is!


Especially in comparison to the one made in 2013, there are definitely some notable differences, such as the expanding territory of girl groups like A Pink, Girl's Day, and AOA and the sizable shrinking of Girls' Generation's land.

One netizen posted the first picture below in which it looks like A Pink and Girls' Generation's popularities appear very similar while Girl's Day is quickly catching up.  In addition, IU, who is the only solo artist featured, is shown as slightly less popular than SISTAR, and AOA is catching up to f(x)'s popularity.




Another netizen seemed to have added onto this map with little islands and segments to feature lesser known idol groups and rookies like MAMAMOO, Rainbow, Lovelyz, SONAMOO, etc.




The last picture shows the map drawing from 2013 for comparison!  What are your thoughts?  Do you think these depictions are accurate?  If not, what adjustments would you make?
