Annyeonghaseyo!

You guys! Numbers don’t lie. Look at the sheer number of Instagram users in South Korea! The number 1 Instagram account there has close to 25 million followers, and the follower count only dropped below 1 million from the 77th spot onwards! That’s almost unbelievable!

Then again, considering that South Korea is the country with some of the most innovative skincare technologies and outrageous beauty standards in the world, it makes sense that South Koreans are visually motivated by beautiful images put out by their local K-pop idols.

And speaking of K-pop idols, Blackpink and BTS seem to have the top spots in the hearts of their fans right now! Who’s surprised?

Don’t believe us? Just browse the names of the top 100 Instagram accounts in South Korea, and even if you can’t read most of them, you will still get what we mean!

Check out the list below. There’s no doubt you will recognise some of them. If you don’t know any at all… Well then, we’re not sure why you’re here.
