Middle School Students Select Their Top 6 Favorite Girl Groups - Number 5 Might Shock You!
On Sunday, May 23, School Secrets, the most popular anonymous sharing platform in Hong Kong, shared a post titled "Most Popular Girl Groups as Voted by Middle School Students" on their Instagram.
BLACKPINK took the top spot, followed by TWICE, Red Velvet, and MAMAMOO. "Produce 101" project group I.O.I ranked at number six. You might be wonder — who ranked at number five?
Number five went to...Super Junior!
Despite being a boy group, Super Junior managed to snag a spot at number five, even beating out I.O.I, an actual girl group. Their group photo on School Secrets's post shows the members dress as Queen Elsa from the popular Disney movie "Frozen."
The boys dressed up as Elsa for the "Super Junior World Tour Super Show 6" concert tour.
Super Junior has been known for not shying away from feminine clothing and has even performed girl group covers in the past. Specifically, member Heechul has shown an affinity for girl group choreographies. Still, when they promote, they have typical masculine concepts.
The results of the poll have fans both confused and amused. One thing is for sure — though Super Junior has been active in the industry for over 15 years, their popularity is undeniable!
