The Billboard Social 50 chart is kind of a weekly chart that ranks the most active musical artists on various social media sites, like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube,...etc. The data collected from these sites include new followers, website/profile views, and streaming media.
With the huge amounts of K-Pop artists interact with fans through social media, it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that they usually chart on this list, and in fact, nearly half of the 50 artists on this week’s chart are K-Pop artists! Here are all 21 of them.
