One of the most intuitive pieces of information when quantifying the popularity of celebrities is how many followers they have on their social media. "A celebrity with 10 million followers" gives a clearer gauge of a star's popularity than just saying "popular celebrity."

Then, who is the celebrity with the most Instagram followers in Korea?

We looked at the top 30 Korean celebrities based on the chart of 'Nox Influencer,' a data analysis and statistics service site. The data only includes celebrities of Korean nationalities.

Ranks 1 to 10 (In order: BLACKPINK's Jennie, BTS official account, BLACKPINK's Jisoo, V, BLACKPINK official account, Jungkook, J-Hope, Jin, SUGA, and RM).

1st place (74.07 million followers) is BLACKPINK’s Jennie, followed by BTS's official account (71.19 million followers). What is noteworthy is that the group BLACKPINK (Jennie, Jisoo) and BTS members (V, Jungkook, J-Hope, Jin, Suga, RM) occupied the entire top 10.

Ranks 11 to 20 (Cha Eun Woo, Lee Min Ho, IU, TWICE official account, Lee Jong Suk, Stray Kids official account, Chanyeol, Sehun, Park Seo Joon, Ji Chang Wook)

After the top 10, the ranks were filled with the names of the actors. The 11th spot (32.52 million followers) was taken by ASTRO member Cha Eun Woo. Following that, actor Lee Min Ho was ranked 12th (31.75 million followers). He boasts the highest number of followers among Korean actors on the chart.
