Top 10 Best K-Pop Artists of All Time

The Top Ten
1 Super Junior Super Junior is a South Korean boy band. Formed in 2005 by producer Lee Soo-man of S.M. Entertainment, the group comprised a total of thirteen members at its peak.

The most popular, no doubt, in S.M. entertainment, and have a huge range of fans. Even so, I believe that certain members do not get enough camera time and that there is a bit of favoritism. Don't get me wrong, I am forever an ELF and believe in all fifteen members! Their talent is very high and they have been able to make through haters a lot!

Super Junior is the biggest boy band and has lasted so many years, fighting all the haters and the bad times. They have been here for us for so long, for us ELFs. They deserve to win the most out of everyone else here. They aren't superficial, they are real people, with true talent. I will love them forever, and only them.

So many years we have shared our love with you and you have shared your love for us fans. We have heard or read many times from other people that you are not worth your reputation and you let your fans down. We know that that's now true. You are constantly working hard to make us happy. And when you are happy we are happy too.. In difficult times when you are sad we cry too. I'm proud to be an E.L. F more than anything else. I know that maybe I'll never have the chance to see you from close or be in one of your concerts due to the distance but still I will love you and support you with all my heart. And as a true E.L. F I'll support 15 of you I know that you won't be together forever and none knows what the future will unfold but honestly the thing that I care the most, even more than your reunion, is that you'll always thing of each other and what have happened till now as sth important in your life and always in your heart. Even if sth changes in the future Super Junior will always ...more

Its been 6 years since they started and they're still going strong. No matter how many of them have to leave, no matter where they are, what are they doing, we ELFS will ALWAYS be with them. I love our ELF family.

2 SHINee Shinee is a South Korean boy band formed by SM Entertainment in 2008. The group is composed of four members: Onew, Key, Minho, and Taemin. Originally a five-piece group, vocalist Jonghyun died in December 2017.

Apart from outstanding vocal and dance performances what SHINee does better than any other group is their team-work. They are the best functioning group in kpop or even pop altogether. Each member is equally important although their talents are very different.
As a group they add to each other and are more than their individual talents combined. It's magical.
And even if you don't like their music I'm sure nobody can deny that they are the loveliest bunch of dorks you will find in kpop. Being polite, funny, intelligent and approachable SHINee has it all. They're the best!

SHINee is in my opinion the best K-Pop band ever because everything is perfect! Their singing and dancing are amazing! I remember the time when I cried so much for them in different times! Thanks to SHINee I got in touch with K-Pop, there are so many artists in South-Korea and I really like a lot of them but SHINee has been my favorite band ever. SHINee isn't a normal band like others! There are different!

When I hear Onews voice I'm always thinking: Am I hearing an angels voice? ; He is so funny and a wonderful leader! He makes mistakes, falls down but that's him! :D
Or Jonghyun! His voice is more than awesome and perfect! He is funny, loves every member and is a good talker! :D
Teamin is one of the best dancer I ever saw and he really is cute! At the beginning he didn't sing so much but yet he improved a lot!
Our diva Key is so funny just like Onew and I'm thankful to him because he takes care of each member! He raps, sings and dances really funny and ...more

The best for what they have made it through, performed, the songs created, the members love for the fans, and because of the shining SHINee's talent! Every single member is different from the others and makes the band what it has become. They have made mistakes in performances, but they keep moving along and know real pain. I am not bias, and I have nothing against

They are definitely the best for me. They sing well, dance well at the same time. Both their vocal and dancing skills are very impressive. They are composed of five members but already of complete set. [voice, dancing ability, composers, good with instruments, rapping, good looks, charming personalities] what else could you ask for from these boys? Love them.

3 EXO Exo is a South Korean-Chinese boy group based in Seoul. Formed by S.M. Entertainment in 2011, the group debuted in 2012 with twelve members separated into two subgroups, EXO-K and EXO-M, performing music in Korean and Mandarin, respectively.

We are EXO! We are one! Even though they are rookies, they have had SO much success! Every single member is unique and this new group is sure to take control of the K-Pop world! They are very talented in both singing and dancing. There are dancing machines and unique voices. I believe that EXO will make it far!

EXO fight!
We are one!.
We will always stand by you!.
Looking forward to seeing you all having the best rookies reward!.

EXO is a group that has excel in every genre.

We are one.
Exo fight!

4 CN Blue

This band has gotten a lot of hate for being unique! People have hated just because they actually play instruments. Yes, almost every K-Pop idol can play an instrument, but CN Blue is unique and different enough to be known for actually incorporating it into their music.

Definitely my favorite K-pop band of all time. They never fail to put out great catchy songs and they all have funny, amazing and hard working personalities which make them even greater! They are definitely a unique band and I can't wait to see what they do next!

5 Lee Seunggi
6 Big Bang Big Bang is a South Korean boy band formed by YG Entertainment. The group consists of 4 members: G-Dragon, T.O.P, Taeyang, and Daesung.

I vote for Bigbang because pretty much all their songs have different feelings in them. Bigbang has many different talents and abilities compared to other k-pop groups. None of them ever seem to upset me. I'll always support Bigbang as the best k-pop group no matter what!

A group with a bit of every music genre in their music that has come down a long road of difficulty. Throughout the serious mistakes made, V.I. ps were able to get past all of them and continue supporting BIGBANG. Each member is very thankful to the fans for their support and shows it as well.

This group is like a puzzle. Every member has a unique, trait that blends well with all the others. Every member is unique, and when they are all together performing you can see the beauty of the picture. Although I like many bands, BIGBANG will always be in my heart.

Love big bang so much
Big bang number 1
I love big bang
They're amazing, talented and there songs are just beautiful. There's songs aren't just ranting about love, but they have a deep meaning

7 SNSD Girls’ Generation, also known as SNSD, was formed in South Korea, in 2007. The current members are Taeyeon, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, Yuri, Sooyoung, Yoona, and Seohyun. Jessica left in 2014. They are known as the second best selling girl group of all time, Korea’s National Girl Group, and one of the best girl groups of all time.

The National Girl Group. They are undeniably the most popular girl group in Korea at the moment. They appear in Variety shows, musicals and they act. Many people think they are just hilarious (I know I do) - and despite what many people think, they are all very talented in certain circles.
Lets hope they beat the 5 year curse and keep on spreading more Soshi love!

SNSD :-
They are pretty, naughty, cute and nice. They is my bias. They are undeniably the most girl group in This world. They are amazing!.. I vote for SNSD because pretty much all their songs have different feelings in them. I will always support SNSD as the BEST KPOP GROUP IN THIS WORLD.

8 BTS BTS, also known as the Bangtan Boys, is a seven-member South Korean boy band formed in Seoul in 2013. RM is the leader and the other members are V, Jimin, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, and Jungkook

Their music and dance is unbeatable. The lyrics are relevant and cool and even foreigners like me can understand some of it due to the English used. They are such cute hip hoppers!

Incorporates some of the most impressive choreography into very catchy songs. Doesn't have to be a "flower-boy" type group, but a unique style that fits in with their talents.

Um, why the hell is BTS not at least in the top five?! Their music has been NUMBER ONE on American charts alone! "DNA," anyone? "Boy With love"? "

Why bts in top 20? They are very good at music. And there are So nice. I think they have to be at first. I like them so much.

9 2NE1 2NE1 was a South Korean girl group consisting of Bom, Dara, CL, and formerly Minzy. The group was formed by YG Entertainment in 2009.

I don't mean to be biased but I feel 2ne1 really deserves to be at least in the top 3. I mean, look at 2ne1 T.V. for example. they were so dorky and cute / innocent! They also have loaaads of talent! Great singers, dancers, rappers, best personalities and the most alien group along with bigbang~ blame YG papa for not sending them to most variety shows..

They are the best!

10 Beast

What sets BEAST apart from other groups is that they give each member their time to shine. The main singer doesn't get all the lines, as in other groups. That's why I love them so much.

The Contenders
11 Infinite
12 IU Lee Ji-eun, also known by her stage name IU, is a South Korean singer-songwriter, record producer and actress.

IU is very pretty, cute, kind ad talented. She has everything.

Very talented composer

13 2PM
14 SS501
15 B.A.P

Again, they are rookies, but they are AMAZING. It is absolutely incredible at how young each member is and how hard they have all trained to get ot where they are. At least two years of training occurs before a trainee can become famous. I am amazed at the talent, dancing, and singing in this group.

They are rookie group can make everyboby amazing. They talent, confident, style, manly, by their way.B.A. P is the Best rookie group of 2012.

16 Epaksa
17 B1A4

They too, have gotten so much hate for how unique they are. This band is among those that are mostly innocent and cute. I love each member because alone they are weird, and putting them all together makes things crazy. They are very thankful for what they have and I have not seen one performance without every effort they have in them put into it!

B1A4 is an extremely talented group and their personalities on and off stage seem natural and friendly. Their music is very good and they managed to sound the same live and on recordings. They come out with very fresh and unique concepts and I think that they have the potential to go far in the K-Pop industry. Keep working hard. B1A4 and BANAs FIGHTING!

Talented and sincere. They can sing and dance and act like real young guys.

18 Psy Park Jae-sang, better known by his stage name Psy, stylized PSY, is a South Korean singer, songwriter, record producer and rapper.
19 F.T. Island

This flower boy band's really awesome. They have great musical skill. I love their songs and their music style. I also love how adorable these guys are. Leader and Lead Guitarist Choi Jonghoon, Main Vocalist Lee Hongki, Bassist and Vocalist Lee Jaejin, Guitarist and Rapper Song Seunghyun and Drummer Choi Minhwan. They prove that they are treasures on their own and to Primadonna.

They're so good, one of the best Korean bands in my opinion! Hongki's voice is so captivating, and the emotion in it is so strong. He's what made me get into KPop. They're a real band, and you can't mistake them for any other. They're just so unique.

20 Girls Generation

I want to see her naked! Every time I see her, ugh! I want to eat her pssy!

21 Nu'est NU'EST is a South Korean boy group formed by Pledis Entertainment consisting of JR, Aron, Baekho, Ren, and Minhyun.

Nu'est are the best no one can be like them the are amazing

22 BLACKPINK Blackpink is a South Korean girl group formed by YG Entertainment, consisting of members Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa.

I think every single one of their songs are great

They deserve to be in the top 3.

Should be on the top 5

23 U-KISS

U-KISS are an amazing kpop group that automatically caught my attention with their debut song Not Young in 2008 and still have my love and devotion to this day. They are talented and hardworking young men who fight through the hard times and the tears to impress their fans. Their songs range from love songs, to songs that just make you want to have a great time. Their dances are meaningful and powerful whether its an upbeat song or a sad/slow song. The members also work hard to learn languages to impress fans all over the globe. Although U-KISS isn't the same without Alexander and Kibum, they still rock the stage and give us their best. They deserve more credit than they're given and should be in at least the top ten. Members Hoon, AJ, Kevin, Eli, Soohyun, Kiseop, and Dongho all are friendly passionate and amazing men who mean the world to me and kissmes everywhere

U-KISS IS THE BEST! THEY SHOULD BE number 1 INSTEAD OF THIS:( they are all so talented and you should judge groups by talents and quality instead of popularity because some REALLY good bands are not from popular entertainment companies like INFINITE and of course U-KISS!
U-KISS Fighting! Keep up the super hard work!

Even though they have not won many awards and never gotten a number one, they have a countless number of fans. Each member has their own talent, and they have made it through a lot since some of the members were kicked out! I think thy have come a long way since the beginning!

U-Kiss is amazing and deserves to be first place.
Even though they haven't won first place but in my heart they have all stolen my heart.
U-Kiss keep strong and you'll get there. I know you can!
U-Kiss FIGHTING!

24 Got7 Got7 is a South Korean boy band formed by JYP Entertainment. The group is composed of seven members: JB, Mark, Jackson, Jinyoung, Youngjae, BamBam, and Yugyeom.
25 VIXX

VIXX is not given enough credit for how talented and amazing they truly are. They've come a long way and are very nice and treat their fans right.
