K-Pop Boy Brands: Ha Sung-woon Tops Tenasia's March Artist Top Ten


Ha Sung-woon, SEVENTEEN, Tomorrow X Together, ZEROBASEONE, Lee Junho, Stray Kids, AlphaDriveOne, &TEAM, EXO, and PAU have been selected as the winners of Tenasia's Artist Top Ten for March in the 'K-Pop Boy Brand' category.

In March, Tenasia conducted a global voting event through its platform, dividing categories into K-Pop Boy Brand, K-Pop Girl Brand, and Hot Genre Brand. The voting took place from March 9 to March 22.

'Artist Top Ten,' organized by Tenasia, is a monthly competition that selects the most buzzworthy domestic artists. Male and female K-pop idols, as well as genre artists (indie, mixed groups, ballads, etc.), compete for the top spot in their respective categories.

In the voting results, singer Ha Sung-woon claimed the top spot in the K-Pop Boy Brand category. Ha Sung-woon appeared on the 748th episode of 'Immortal Songs' on March 21, performing 'Too Painful a Love Was Not Love' in a tribute to the late Kim Kwang-seok. His performance started gently like a spring rain and built up to a dramatic climax. Additionally, he is set to reunite with Wanna One for a full group activity in April, meeting fans through the reality program 'Wanna One Go.' Wanna One was formed through the 2017 Mnet survival program 'Produce 101 Season 2.'

SEVENTEEN secured the second position. On March 30, Pledis Entertainment announced that SEVENTEEN would hold the '2026 SVT 10th Fan Meeting ' on June 20-21 at the Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. The event will be available both offline and via online live streaming.

Tomorrow X Together took third place. They are set to release their mini-album '7th Year: When the Wind Stops in the Thornbush' on April 13. This album marks their first group release since all five members renewed their contracts with Big Hit Music last August. Members Soobin and Yeonjun also appeared on the web variety show 'Salon Drip' on March 31, sharing touching memories of their friendship.

Following them were ZEROBASEONE, Lee Junho, Stray Kids, AlphaDriveOne, &TEAM, EXO, and PAU.

The rankings for Ha Sung-woon, SEVENTEEN, Tomorrow X Together, ZEROBASEONE, Lee Junho, Stray Kids, AlphaDriveOne, &TEAM, EXO, and PAU were determined 100% by votes cast through the Tenasia application. After the monthly voting concludes, the artists with the highest combined fan vote scores are selected as the Artist Top 10. The voting page also offers a daily heart gift event for attendance check-ins.

Candidates for the K-Pop Boy Brand and K-Pop Girl Brand categories are selected from the top 20 teams on the monthly Melon Chart and Idol Champ Chart. Candidates for the Hot Genre Brand category are chosen from the top 20 teams on the Melon Chart and Celeb Champ Chart.

Artists who make it to the 'Artist Top Ten' receive benefits such as special articles linked to their final ranking, promotion on the Tenasia website, and inclusion in the next month's Artist Top Ten candidates (limited to the top artist).
