Most searched boy band: Included in the list is BTS, who was crowned the most searched boy band in all of Google’s history. 
Formed in 2013, BTS has achieved global success, garnering a massive fan base known as ARMY and setting records in music charts. Although the septet is currently on hiatus to fulfill military service requirements, they renewed their contracts with Big Hit Music in September, with plans for a full group comeback in 2025. 
Most searched girl band: As for the most searched girl band, Blackpink takes the lead. Formed in 2016, quartet Blackpink has also made significant strides, including being the first K-group to headline Coachella. They recently renewed their exclusive contracts with YG Entertainment
