October girl group band reputation ranking results are out. The Korean Business Research Institute analyzed the media coverage, community indexes, consumer participation, and interactions of K-pop girl groups for the rankings. Here are the top 5 October girl group band reputation rankings.
1. LE SSERAFIM
LE SSERAFIM won this month’s rankings with a reputation index of 4,887,479. This is a 37% increase compared to their last month’s score. “Crazy” was one of the high-ranking phrases in the group’s keyword analysis. This would make sense as LE SSERAFIM’s “Crazy” comeback single in August raised the group’s Spotify monthly listeners from 11 to 15 million. As of October 11, “ANTIFRAGILE” track became the group’s 1st single to surpass 500 million Spotify streams while the “EASY” track became the 6th single to surpass 200 million Spotify views.
2. AESPA
AESPA came in second with a reputation index of 4,840,235. The recently concluded 1st leg of ‘SYNK: Parallel Line’ tour, whose 2025 US and Europe legs were recently announced, played a major role in AESPA’s ranking. Moreover, the recently released 4 solo tracks by each member as well as the highly anticipated October “Whiplash” album have contributed heavily to AESPA’s ranking.
3. IVE
IVE took the third position with a reputation index of 4,685,474. This marks a 2.83% increase from last month’s score. The group’s recently concluded ‘Show What I Have’ world tour, Karina’s appearance in Paris Fashion Week 2024, and their latest sales record-breaking ‘IVE Switch’ album have contributed to IVE’s top 3 ranking.
4. BLACKPINK
BLACKPINK came in fourth with a reputation index of 3,894,967 which marks an 87.67% increase from September’s scores. Jennie’s “Mantra” single, Lisa’s “Moonlit Floor” single, Rose’s upcoming ‘Rosie’ full-length album announcement, and Jisoo’s upcoming album teaser.
5. FIFTY FIFTY
FIFTY FIFTY took fifth place with a reputation index of 3,502,869 marking a 178.30% increase from September’s scores. The ranking was contributed to by the overwhelming fanbase excitement after the group recently reformed and returned as a quintet band. The group’s successful August comeback 2nd album, ‘Starry Night’, also helped raise the rebranded FIFTY FIFTY band’s brand ranking score.
