Group NewJeans member Minji has claimed the No. 1 spot on Star Ranking's Star Idol Female Chart.

Minji secured 15,281 votes in the 247th Star Ranking Star Idol Female Chart voting period from 3:01 p.m. on the 16th to 3:00 p.m. on the 23rd, securing first place for the 10th consecutive week.

Following Minji at No. 1, Red Velvet's Irene ranked second with 11,100 votes, Girls' Generation's Yuri third with 1,654 votes, Girls' Generation's Yoona fourth with 972 votes, and Red Velvet's Wendy fifth with 744 votes.

On the 22nd, Minji shared a long-awaited greeting through the official NewJeans YouTube channel video titled '2026 Summer of NewJeans'. Particularly noteworthy was that while members Haerin, Hyein, and Hanni returned to their agency Adore following exclusive contract disputes, no announcement had been made regarding Minji's return, making the public release of the video even more heartening.

Meanwhile, Star Ranking is a ranking poll where fans directly vote for their favorite stars to determine rankings. When voting via mobile, voters can receive a voting certificate, and depending on the final ranking results, various special benefits are provided to the star.

Stars selected as No. 1 for four consecutive weeks will be featured in outdoor billboard advertisements. Fans of stars who rank No. 1 for four consecutive weeks can also request outdoor billboard video fan reports. Requests should be submitted via StarNews' official email (star@mtstarnews.com).

Starting from the June voting, results will be factored into the selection of AAA 2026 Star Ranking award winners.
