Just like last year, I wanted to share my top twenty most-viewed posts for 2024. I find this list an interesting gauge of who is popular (at least among netizens who read reviews).
The most obvious takeaway from this list is the utter dominance of girl groups. Seriously, there’s only one boy group in the entire top twenty and you have to go even further down (Seventeen at number 36) to find another. I don’t know exactly what this means given the fact that both boy and girl groups continue to sell well and promote successfully. I guess girl group stans are more apt to search out information online?
Full Top 20
20. My Top Performances of the 2024 MAMA Awards
19. Song Review: KATSEYE – Debut
18. Song Review: Zico – Spot! (ft. BLACKPINK’s Jennie)
17. Song Review: LE SSERAFIM – Crazy
16. Song Review: LE SSERAFIM – Easy

13. Song Review: (G)I-DLE – Wife
12. Song Review: Jennie (BLACKPINK) – Mantra
11. Song Review: BABYMONSTER – Forever
10. Song Review: ITZY – Untouchable
It seems that ITZY still drums up plenty of international interest. This was also released very early in the year, so that helps.
9. Song Review: Nayeon (Twice) – ABCD
I love when a super positive review gains traction since I feel like most of my most popular posts are for songs I don’t like as much.
8. Song Review: NewJeans – Bubble Gum
This was not the buzziest NewJeans single of the year, but it was the earliest and most popular review.
7. Song Review: IVE – HEYA
IVE still command plenty of international attention.
6. Song Review: Stray Kids – Chk Chk Boom
Stray Kids seem to be the one boy group who can pierce the online popularity of girl groups.
5. Song Review: ILLIT – Magnetic
The top-viewed debut track this year. That’s not too surprising!
4. Song Review: IU – Love Wins All
It’s nice to see that IU still attracts tons of attention for her music.
3. Song Review: aespa – Supernova
I’m not surprised to see this here given its massive popularity this year.
2. Song Review: Rosé (BLACKPINK) x Bruno Mars – APT.
Again, I’m not surprised to see this here given its popularity, but the fact it’s only been out for a couple of months makes this even more impressive.
1. Song Review: BABYMONSTER – Sheesh
I guess everyone was curious to see how people were feeling about the polarizing Sheesh. Hopefully the review didn’t disappoint, because plenty of readers flocked to it.
