The margin of error is ±2.0 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.

In the list that was chosen by respondents between the ages of 13 to 39, BTS maintained their No. 1 spot for the third consecutive year.  IU rose to second place this year after being ranked No. 4 last year, and BLACKPINK entered the list at third place.

Im Young Woon entered both lists and even placed No. 1 in the ranking by respondents in the age group 40 and up. Young Tak and Na Hoon Ah came in second and third, respectively. Jung Dong Won and Lee Chan Won shared the sixth place spot.

For the second question, respondents were asked to list up to three of their favorite songs in 2020 (although not necessarily released this year).
