Joysound recently conducted a poll to explore the music preferences of teens in Japan, focusing on their top K-pop group picks.

Over the years, K-pop's influence has expanded across the globe, particularly growing among Japanese youth. K-pop's popularity has grown steadily, with more and more Japanese teens listening to the popular genre.

The survey, which included both males and females in their teens and 20s, categorized the results into popular male and female idol groups. Stray Kids once again emerged as the most popular male group among teens, while BTS was most popular among fans in their 20s. TWICE was selected as the leading female group for both teens and 20s.
