AKP STAFF

141 idol stars voted on each other.

For the Lunar New Year special, 'Ilgan Sports' once again rounded up 19 idol groups (141 members in total) for the annual survey of superlatives to describe fellow idols.

The categories for this year were: best-looking, hottest physique, male/female idols they would like to befriend (voted by the opposite sex), idols with unexpected personalities, idols who will most likely to succeed in 2019, idols you would like to collaborate with, and idols you would like to buy a meal for.

The participating idol groups were: GOT7, NU’EST, MAMAMOO, Momoland, MONSTA X, BTS, Black Pink, Seventeen, Stray Kids, (G)I-DLE, iKON, IZ*ONE, Wanna One, GFriend, IMFACT, Kim Chung Ha, Cherry Bullet, TWICE, and SF9.

As part of the miscellaneous answers, there was one group in which individual members were all voted at least once, separately.
