Usually, the criteria for a K-Pop idol's rank is based on communication, consumer media, and community indices. Moreover, the ranking is based on the brand reputation index. This measures the impression your brand makes on the public, if your brand is associated with local numbers, and it also monitors levels of positive engagement in the K-Pop world.
