The difference between #15 and #1 is huge!
Koreaboo
When it comes to K-Pop artists, there isn’t any set number of songs that they’re expected to release each year. While fans of a group will always be excited for new music from their favorite artists, most of them also like to see a balance of work and rest so idols can stay healthy and happy. That being said, there is a huge difference in how many songs different third generation boy groups have released in their careers, and therefore, a much different number of average songs released per year!
Here’s a look at the average number of songs released by 15 K-Pop boy groups each year, based on their total songs released and how many years they’ve been active.
