The 30 Best-Performing Foreign Singles By K-Pop Girl Groups

One group in particular dominates this list!

Both K-Pop boy groups and girl groups have, through the last several years, reached out to foreign audiences through the use of songs created in non-Korean languages, most commonly Japanese, English, and Chinese. There are some groups that do this more often than others — sometimes related to if they have foreign members within their group — and the artists that go to these measures tend to do better in foreign markets than those that don’t! Here are the 30 most-watched foreign releases by K-Pop girl groups.
