It seems like anyone who steps foot outside of Korea is considered a hallyu star today, but we know it takes much more to reach true hallyu star status. We all define success differently, but we want to know who you, our readers, consider to be the most successful hallyu star right now.
Is true hallyu stardom determined by the number of records an artist has sold, how many concertgoers they draw out or how many countries they’ve taken over? Vote based on what matters most to you, and let us know why you voted for who you did in the comments below.

1. Jang Keun Suk
2. Lee Min Ho
3. Kim Hyun Joong
If Jang Keun Suk is the Prince of Asia, Kim Hyun Joong is the ‘god of the universe.’ Okay, that’s according to one fan, but Jang should keep an eye on the SS501 member, who has been shaking things up in China, Japan and Asia at large.
Not only did 2011 releases Breakdown and Lucky rank number one on the Oricon chart in Japan, he is one of the artists the country is most excited about for 2012.
He was a crowd pleaser in China and Yahoo! Asia was abuzz about the singer.
