While all K-pop artists have their own fans, of course, there are some K-pop artists who have larger fan bases in certain countries or around the world. Typically, in jäṗäń, one of the countries that is very fond of кσяєαn music.

While K-Pop is now going further, encroaching on North αmєrícα and Europe, jäṗäń is still one of the major markets for кσяєαn artists to conquer. There are many famous K-pop artists that are loved in this country and even have a special influence on jäṗäńese fans.

Here are Top 7 Hottest Male K-Pop Idols, according to jäṗäńese teenagers, which have been recently announced:

With the popularity of K-Pop growing around the world, jäṗäń, which is a neighbor of South кσяєα, is arguably one of the key countries attracting the concentration of entertainment companies. This is considered a fertile ground for K-pop artists to spread their influence since the industry appeared until now.

Not only that, jäṗäńese fans also tend to consume strongly idol-related products. Not to mention the number of jäṗäńese idols debuting as K-Pop stars is also increasing at the end of the year.

But what is the jäṗäńese public’s taste when it comes to idols? To determine this, 20,804 jäṗäńese teenagers were asked to vote on the hottest K-Pop idols. Here are the seven most-voted male idols.

7. SHINee’s Taemin

Despite being out of the K-Pop scene for a few months, due to his m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ enlistment, Taemin still remains in jäṗäńese fans’ minds as they voted him the seventh hottest K-Pop idol. With SHINee being widely loved in jäṗäń and Taemin having one of the most attractive visuals, voice, and dancing sкιℓℓs in all of K-Pop, his ranking comes to no one’s surprise.

6. ASTRO’s Cha Eunwoo

One of the few K-Pop stars that are known for their acting career just as they are known for being idols, Cha Eunwoo took sixth place on the poll. The ASTRO star is famous for his sculpted-like face and handsome proportions — features that he shows off during ASTRO performances as well as his numerous acting gigs.

5. BTS’s Jungkook

Following Jin and V, BTS’s Jungkook is the third BTS member topping the list. The group’s vocalist is yet another star known for his jaw-dropping visuals and his “bad boy” look. The recent pictures that came out of his project with Calvin Klein are the proof needed that Jungkook is definitely among the hottest K-Pop stars all over the world, jäṗäń included.

With his singing ability, comprehensive choreography, bright appearance and strong stage charisma, Jung Kook has completely conquered fans in the land of peach blossoms. Along with BTS's growing popularity, Jungkook has also proven himself to be the most influential member of the group in the jäṗäńese market. The frequency of his social media appearances and the sales of his solo songs have shown a strong level of popularity with young people.

4. BTS’s V

It’s hard to image a list of K-Pop’s hottest stars, no matter which country votes on the ranking, without V near the top. The BTS star ranked fourth, proving his unbeatable visuals once again. Seems like jäṗäńese teenagers aren’t immune to V’s charisma either, just like the rest of the world.

V has repeatedly reached the top 1 trending in jäṗäń with the keyword #Taehyung after every event with his appearance. With a handsome appearance, sweet voice and good personality, it is not difficult to understand why V is so loved even though jäṗäńese auďïệnces are known for being difficult.

V’s “Sweet Night” ever topped jäṗäń’s iTunes Top Song Chart, becoming the only song in iTunes history to h̾i̾t ̾ number one in 114 countries. While it is common for a кσяєαn artist to promote their jäṗäńese album in jäṗäń, V has become the first кσяєαn solo artist to top the jäṗäń’s iTunes Top Song Chart with a song that was released in кσяєα.

3. Stray Kids’ Lee Know

Lee Know took third place on the hottest K-Pop idols list. The Stray Kids member is known for his handsome visuals and equally as flawless personality. Lee Know is also an all-rounder in the group, the idol is capable of dancing, singing, and rapping — all of which only further increases his charm.

2. ENHYPEN’s Niki

The first and only jäṗäńese K-Pop star on the list, Niki ranked second on the poll. The ENHYPEN star’s incredible stage presence and amazing dance sкιℓℓs definitely were a big plus to his handsome visuals. Seems like jäṗäńese teenagers just can’t resist Niki’s charisma.

1. BTS’s Jin

The “Worldwide Handsome” star took first place on the poll, with jäṗäńese teenagers voting him as the hottest K-Pop star. Jin is known for his flawless skin, stunning visuals, and amazing proportions, so topping this list was only natural for the BTS member.

Talking about the 2nd largest music market in the world, jäṗäń is also known as Jin-land. Jin's OST "Yours" also once stood at No. 1 on iTunes jäṗäń within an hour of its release. It became the first K-pop solo song to h̾i̾t ̾ all-кιℓℓ on the jäṗäńese charts.

Most recently, Jin's The Astronaut also topped all of jäṗäń's singles charts. It was also in the top trending videos on Youtube just a few hours after its release.
