It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that BTS is the most popular K-Pop boy group right now. Not only having a strong fan base, BTS also has high public recognition, in South Korea as well as many other countries around the world - any song released by the Big Hit boy group can cause a global fever.

The influence of the BTS name is the perfect momentum to help each member of the group get the attention of the audience, thereby attracting for themselves a large individual fanbase. Each member has their own personalities, strengths and charms that help them capture the hearts of fans. And depending on preferences of people in each country, a certain member will be more popular in a particular country.

A YouTube channel recently made a video summarizing the popularity of each BTS member in 13 different countries, with data collected from Google, Twitter and many other polls on big social networks, from January 2015 to August 2020. Through the analysis, the rankings have been formed, showing which members are the most popular and least popular in each country.

It is easy to see a clear difference between the maknae-line and the hyung-line in the results. Jungkook, V and Jimin (the maknae-line, i.e., the younger members) are regularly in the top 3 most popular members, while Jin, Suga, J-Hope, and RM (the hyung-line, i.e., the older members) share the 4 positions in the bottom half of the chart.

J-Hope was ranked last in 12/13 countries (excluding Japan). There is only one country where a hyung-line member gets to the top of the chart, which is the United States.

Let's take a look at the specific popularity rankings of the 7 BTS members in 13 different countries based on Google, Twitter and other social media data.
