The chart shows the popularity position of internet cafe of individual member in groups: 2 PM, 2 AM, TVXQ, SS501, Big Bang, Super Junior, and FT Island.
And all TVXQ’s five members’ fancafes have swept the top 5 on chart for domestic (South Korea) and Asia counts.
More than 300,000 members joined Junsu fancafe, boasted his individual fancafe to be the first on chart. The second to have most members in his fancafe is Yoochun. Jaejoong followed behind, and continue with Yunho and Changmin.
In this chart, TVXQ successfully knocked down other local male group and gets its winning. TVXQ is the only group whose all 5 members get more than 200,000 people in each fancafe. Junsu and Yoochun hold 330,000 members and 310,000 members respectively. Both Jaejoong and Yunho get 230,000-ish members in each fancafe while Changmin holds 200,000.

This chart aims to grade all fanclub’s recent most important member of each teen group and is up both in Daum and Naver which are the biggest portal site in South Korea.
Of course, netizens can not just connect the result of this chart directly to the scale of each group member’s popularity, as the number resulted is not released officially and the counting is not done physically (T/N: just an estimation). Even some fancafes’ members called the chart as an “absurd chart”.
Nevertheless, this popularity measurement chart still gathers a lot of netizens’ attention.
The uniqueness of this chart is to measure the popularity of each member and not the group. Especially to see the recent trend spreads, that there are many member solo activities being held.
One admin of a large fanclub said, “Young generation nowadays tend to prefer individual activities of a member than in the group. Thus, it becomes so natural that idol group’s members also put their solo activities first above the group activities. There is recently a case that a fan of an individual member overwhelmed the group of his/her favorite member.”
