Top 10 most watched fancams of female K-pop idols in 2021 (ft. TWICE, BLACKPINK, aespa, and more)
The competition of female idols with the hottest fancams in 2021 is between members of TWICE, BLACKPINK and aespa.
The success of K-pop inevitably comes with high competition. Therefore, in order to maintain popularity, K-pop idols always have to refresh their image, “upgrade” their visuals, skills and charisma through each comeback. Individual fancams with millions of views are one of the criteria to evaluate the charm of each idol to the public. Fancam views also partly reflect the individual popularity rankings of each group’s members.
On November 23, on the most famous online community in Korea, Pann, a topic about the Top 10 most viewed fancams of female idols in 2021 attracted much attention from Korean netizens.
It comes as no surprise that the Top 10 hottest fancams of female idols this year are dominated by members of three most popular girl groups today: TWICE, BLACKPINK and aespa. Not being overshadowed by seniors from the 3rd generation, 2 members of aespa enter the list with 3 fancams. In particular, Winter excellently takes the second place with the Next Level fancam on Inkigayo comeback stage on May 30. Up to now, this fancam has received more than 2.7 million views.
Winter is followed by another aespa member, Karina in third place. Notably, similar to BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Karina is included twice in the Top 10. Both her viral fancams are during the promotions for Next Level.
The 2 BLACKPINK members who made their solo debut this year, Lisa and Rosé, did not rank as high as expected. Specifically, Rosé is at No.4 in the end with the fancam On The Ground in March. The fancam as of November 23 recorded more than 2.2 million views.
However, Rosé is still luckier than maknae Lisa. Despite a very successful solo debut, Lisa only ranked 9th and 10th with her 2 LALISA fancams.
Holding the No.1 position is Nayeon (TWICE). She is already familiar with the audience due to her bright aura. Nayeon was a smart choice when she was trusted by JYP for the center position. Therefore, with Alcohol-Free’s colorful summer concept, Nayeon freely displayed her cheerful charm that is her “weapon”.
Currently, the Alcohol-Free fancam has reached nearly 3.3 million views, helping Nayeon become TWICE’s No. 1 fighter in this race.
In response to this chart, Knets left many comments:
- Even though it’s been 7 years since Nayeon’s debut, I’m still surprised that she’s still at the top of the list. Nayeon was born to be an idol.
- I think fancam views are also an important criterion in the idol industry. It’s like idol popularity charts. Congratulations to Im Nayeon on winning first place!
- Nayeon, Winter, and Karina are the most popular female idols in the male fan community
- Nayeon is 1st, Jihyo is 6th. Poor the antis, TWICE is still doing a great job.
