BTS, SEVENTEEN, And NCT Leads In Brand Ranking In February For K-Pop Boy Groups

Brand reputation is how a brand is viewed by the public. A good brand reputation means that the masses trust in your brand and that consumers are confident to do business with you. So in the K-Pop industry, this means a lot in terms of popularity and earning power.

Usually, the criteria for a K-Pop group'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.
