BoA ranked 1st with 100,682 votes in the third week of May DC Trend K-POP female singer weekly vote.
Having achieved four crowns centered around her 11th regular and Japanese mini album activities, she still boasts a strong hold as a solo artist. In addition to confirming participation in SMTOWN LIVE 2025 Tokyo Dome concert, BoA will hold a solo concert in Osaka, Fukuoka, and Tokyo, Japan, in September. This tour, held approximately 9 months after ‘BoA: One’s Own,’ is her first solo performance in Japan in 3 years and 4 months, and fans are responding enthusiastically.
Especially through the single released last March, ‘Really, Isn’t It?’ she showcased deeply emotional music and is recognized for her depth as a musician. Fans are continuously praising her, stating ‘Indeed BoA at the top,’ and ‘The legend who can be both charismatic and lovely.’
The second place was taken by Moon Chanel with 75,822 votes. He is currently active with a regular album and is gaining attention for his outstanding stage concept digestibility, with his fandom quickly expanding. Fans express deep affection even with the short message ‘I love you.’
The third place was Fifty Fifty Athena, receiving 45,852 votes and securing a spot at the top. IU was ranked 4th with 13,177 votes, and Yewon was 5th with 12,033 votes.
From 6th to 10th place are as follows.
Kina
Hani
Wendy
Karina
SinB
While a three-way battle is forming between BoA, Moon Chanel, and Athena, IU and Yewon are in a neck-and-neck contest in the mid-tier. The advancement of consistent solo artists like Kina, Hani, and Wendy is also anticipated, and rearrangement in the top tier is possible in the next vote. Specifically, the clear vote gap difference between fan bases noticed this week draws interest on what reversal it could bring in the next ranking fight.
