Singer Lim Young-woong once again proved to be one of the most influential artists in the Korean music industry during 2025.
According to the recently released "2025 Circle Chart Annual Share by Singer," Lim Young-woong has made it to the Top 6 list among numerous groups and solo singers representing Korea.
The "share by singer" of the circle chart is calculated based on the circle index (summing of streaming, downloading, and BGM numbers) of songs that entered the TOP 400 in the year. Lim Young-woong remained at the top of the list in 2025 following 2024, proving to be an icon of "long run," not a flash of popularity.
In particular, the new song "Beautiful than Heaven," released in the first half of 2025, dominated the top of the chart for a long time. Mega hits such as "Love Always Runs Away," "Our Blues" and "Now Trust Me" still remained at the top of the charts, driving strong data share.
The TOP 6 record is significant as a result of K-pop idol groups with large fandom occupying the charts. Lim Young-woong is the only solo singer who has been ranked at the top of the circle index for five consecutive years and has established himself as a "national singer" loved by all generations regardless of genre.
Lim Young-woong's performance is the result of combining high-quality music that has secured popularity with the full support of the loyal fandom "Hero Generation." The chart share TOP 6 can be said to be an indicator of how solid Lim Young-woong's influence is as a "brand" beyond mere popularity.
Lim Young-woong has made remarkable strides throughout 2025, including not only music chart share but also brand reputation No. 1 and various awards. During the year-end and New Year holidays, it is attracting attention whether it will set a new record in 2026 by spreading good influence through donations and concert activities.
Meanwhile, Lim Young-woong recently scored a number of songs on Melon's annual chart in 2025, overwhelming the overall annual settlement chart.
