K-pop stars used to only communicate with fans in Korean gathering places like Daum Cafe or V LIVE. However, as the industry has spread globally; so lets look at most followed K-pop stars on Instagram as of 2022
RM from BTS
One of the most aesthetically pleasing Instagram feeds one could find belongs to BTS leader RM. Nature and art are everywhere on RM’s page, two things he likes to do in his spare time. Additionally, the BTS leader uses the story feature to introduce his fans to new musicians and songs that he’s been enjoying.
On Instagram, the rapper currently has a following of over 38.7 million users.
Jungkook from BTS
Even though he only occasionally uses Instagram, BTS’ golden maknae Jungkook has more than 47.1 million followers on the social media platform. Initially, Jungkook would post videos and photos quite frequently, but since he twice deleted his entire feed and started upholding a specific theme, the frequency of his posts has decreased.
The K-pop idol has acknowledged that it is challenging to maintain the theme, which causes him to hesitate before posting anything.
Rosé
BLACKPINK’s Rosé has more than 63.9 million Instagram followers. Hard To Love, a solo song by the Saint Laurent brand ambassador that was included on BLACKPINK’s most recent album Born Pink, surprised fans.
Jisoo
