How the score is computed

Multi-dimensional influence scoring: Domestic Buzz (30%) + Global Reach (30%) + Chart Power (10%) + Engagement Quality (15%) + Cross-Source Consensus (15%). Each source weighted by authority, engagement quality, and audience uniqueness. All values log-normalized to 0-100.

  • Domestic Buzz (43%) — Korean community discourse volume (TheQoo, NatePann)
  • Consensus (22%) — Cross-source validation: more independent sources = more credible
  • Engagement (21%) — Comment-to-view ratio, discussion depth across sources
  • Chart Power (14%) — Streaming chart presence (Melon, Bugs). Low weight: manipulation risk
