SNSD, Big Bang are the top idols fans want to spend Valentine’s Day with

According to portal site Geumyoung Karaoke, SNSD and Big Bang were the #1 idols fans wanted to spend their Valentine’s Day with.

Starting January 27th, the site held a 6-day poll asking users to nominate their top idol choices for a Valentine’s date. Based on votes from 537 people (321 males, 216 females in their 20s-30s), 41% chose SNSD, while IU raked in 32%. SNSD is now enjoying their third consecutive year at the top of the poll.

As for the males, Big Bang enjoyed a triumphant return to the top with 27% of the votes, thanks to the ‘double combo’ appeal of Seungri and GD&TOP’s albums. The group had won in 2009, but lost in 2010 to ballad idol group 2AM.

Continuing with runner-ups for the male idols, 2PM came in second with 18%, B2ST took third with 16%, and 2AM fell to fourth place with 15%.

The poll also asked users to name the #1 Valentine’s Day proposal song, and IU’s “Good Day” shone at the top. Meanwhile, users voted for IU and Seulong’s “Nagging” to be the song they most wanted to sing with their significant other.

As Koreans celebrate Valentine’s Day with a twist (women give men chocolates on February 14th, and the men return the compliment one month later), the ladies were asked which male celebrity they most wanted to give chocolates to. Thanks to the “Secret Garden” craze, Hyun Bin dominated the votes.

To wrap up, users were asked to think back to a romantic drama couple they most envied. Poll results showed that everyone was in love with the lovers from “Secret Garden”, Hyun Bin/Ha Ji Won andYoon Sang Hyun/Kim Sa Rang.
