Gallup Korea's Favorite Singer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gallup Korea's Favorite Singer is a recurring survey conducted as part of the "What Koreans Like" (Korean: 한국인이 좋아하는) series. Launched in 2004 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Gallup Korea's founding, the survey is conducted every five years to explore various aspects of South Korean lifestyle and culture. This survey is distinct from the Gallup Korea's Singer of Year. Unlike the annual "Singer of the Year" polls, which have been released every December since 2005 to highlight the most impactful performances of a specific year, the "Favorite Singer" survey measures long-term public preference and is released only every five years.
