SNSD

Kara
YouTube - KARA Pretty GirL (MBank 090123)
Wonder Girls

Will in my opinion. Jpop girls are prettier, better singers, better dancers, more interesting personalities, and less fake than kpop girls.
Here is proof.
Bright -Love
YouTube - ‪BRIGHT / LOVE〜ある愛のカタチ〜‬‏

Juliet - Motokare
YouTube - ‪Juliet - Moto Kare‬‏


YouTube - ‪miray(ミレイ)/ Proof of Love‬‏

YouTube - ‪谷村奈南 / Crazy For You‬‏

YouTube - ‪May J. / Garden feat. DJ KAORI, Diggy-MO', クレンチ&ブリスタ‬‏



Furthermore: IFPI 2011 ranking
Japan is #2 and Korea is #12 you can talk about kpop popularity but here are the actual numbers for 2011.(ranking names are one year ahead of data - 2011 ranking uses 2010 data)

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
furthermore, this is 2009 IFPI ranking. Korea didn't make the list even though the Kpop wave was will underway in SEA.


What has changed since 2009 to 2011 in SEA? Nothing. The truth is Kpop started focusing on the Japanese market in 2010 with Kara, SNSD etc all going to Japan. The only reason Kpop is 12th placer is because they increased there market share by selling to Japan. Korean Idols know its important, that's why they sing in Japanese and speak Japanese and say all kinds of nice things about Japan.

Jpop sales around the world including Asia are bigger than Kpop(Fact). By your logic, this must mean the world finds Japanese idol groups better than Korean(more gorgeous, cute, pure, upbeat, charming).
