Pann: 2018 Youtube view rankings by country (BTS, Twice, Blackpink, EXO, etc - total of 14 K-pop groups)

1. [+164, -9] BTS is #1 in most countries including the US. Twice is #1 in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan. Blackpink is #1 in Southeast Asia like Thailand. The biggest music markets in the world are the US and Japan. Blackpink is the only one that media-plays while lying about the countries they're popular in. In fact, all of their views come from Southeast Asia but they only media-play about the US and Japan.

2. [+138, -5] Blackpink media-played about surpassing BTS on Youtube and called themselves K-pop siblings but ㅋㅋ

(Articles on BTS and Blackpink as K-pop siblings and Blackpink surpassing BTS)

3. [+107, -5] I think it's meaningless to consider the artists after #1 in the US and Europe rankings because BTS is always #1 and the artists after BTS have similar views. I'm not praising BTS or anything.

4. [+46, -5] BTS and Twice, who are doing the best, are staying quiet but only Blackpink goes and media-plays about surpassing BTS and Twice ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+46, -4] How defensive do Blackpink fans feel against Twice that they're leaving hateful comments on Twice here ㅋㅋ After BTS, the rankings are meaningless. Blackpink kept media-playing about the US but they're not that higher than Twice.

6. [+41, -3] I knew BTS was doing really well but I just found out that Twice is doing well, too. JYP is staying quiet but YG does so much media-play with Blackpink.

7. [+39, -7] Twice is popular by every country! They're doing well on Youtube.

8. [+32, -4] Charts don't lie. At gayo daejejun, EXO acted like they were the king of hallyu and K-pop but what's with their views ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
