The most successful celebrities or idols are the ones that have transcended time and will always be picked as the most renowned or recognized regardless of the generation.
A few Korean celebrities have already reached that level as they have made themselves the most recognized and loved stars in South Korea. Recently, a Korean netizen began a discussion in a popular online community where they asked who would be the most successful idol of all time.
The netizen who started the discussion wrote, "I'm asking this because I got curious after I saw another online community post about the genius idol, who is the most successful idol member? Two years ago, people were saying it was G-Dragon but I still think it's G-Dragon and Taeyeon, Baekhyun, Kai, Jennie, and Suzy."
Other netizens joined the conversation and gave their two cents on this, and most of them picked Lee Hyori and G-Dragon this time around. Netizens commented, "G-Dragon and Lee Hyori," "I think if it's just one member, it's Suzy, for the group, BTS," "I think if you look at success, there is no one else other than G-Dragon because there is no other idol who was recognized as an artist like G-Dragon," "G-Dragon or Taeyeon," "I think Lee Hyori and G-Dragon," "Definitely G-Dragon. Not only in terms of music but even in the fashion industry," "I think G-Dragon and Lee Hyori as the two top and then Suzy, YoonA, if Taeyeon is going to be included on the list," and "G-Dragon. He doesn't need to promote but still earns a living through his music copyrights."
Who do you think is the most successful idol member of all time?
GD is the absolute epitome of a successful idol. IU is 2nd. For groups, it's BigBang, BTS, and BlackPink.
