The brand reputation rankings for individual boy group members have been revealed for August. As usual, the Korean Business Research Institute has revealed the list based on the analysis of various criteria like media coverage, consumer participation, communication, and community awareness. This time, the big data was collected from an index of over 755 boy group members between July 16 and August 16, 2025.
Let’s go over the list one by one:

Topping the chart is BTS member Jin with a brand reputation index of 4,961,133. This marks a 3.54% increase in his score since July. The most common keywords associated with him include “world tour,” “Don’t Say You Love Me,” “concert,” “outstanding,” “sold out,” and “expand.” Meanwhile, the positivity-negativity analysis of the BTS member reveals a 94.3% score.
