Here Are The Top K-Pop Stars And Groups On Tumblr In 2021

As the year winds to a close, Tumblr took a look back at 2021 with its annual Year in Review!

Tumblr’s year-end lists are based on its own “Fandometrics,” which rank the most talked-about entertainers and entertainment topics on the site and track shifts in users’ conversations. This year’s rankings were determined using data from October 21, 2020 to October 20, 2021.

BTS took No. 13 on Tumblr’s overall list of the “Top 21 of 2021,” which ranked this year’s 21 most talked-about topics on the platform.

BTS also held onto their spot at No. 1 on the list of 2021’s Top K-Pop Groups, with Stray Kids and ATEEZ similarly maintaining their respective positions at No. 2 and No. 3 from last year.

Tumblr’s full list of 2021’s Top K-Pop Groups is as follows (the numbers after group names indicate their rise or fall on the list compared to last year):
