Let’s see which KPOP soloists’ MVs received the most attention from the music audiences during the past 10 years.
KPOP has been famous with idol groups; however, this doesn’t mean that the individual activities of solo KPOP artists don’t have much influence on this music industry. In fact, in the most recent decade, many solo singers, such as BoA, IU, Psy, etc., have gained a lot of remarkable achievements and broke various outstanding records for KPOP.
