                      I think we all already knew about EXO since the First Snow phenomenon is happening this month, and we probably all figured BTS and Big Bang would be up there. But Winner is the surprise here for the number of times they are on the list. Alright WInner! Get your well-deserved recognition! Great example for making music within YG that is not necessarily fitting the YG standard style.
