Here's the top 10 celebrities on the list (in order): 1. Kim Yuna, 2. Big Bang, 3. Wonder Girls, 4. Lee Hyori, 5. Girls' Generation, 6. Park Ji Sung, 7. Lee Seung Yub, 8. Rain / Bi, 9. Yoo Jae Suk, 10. Kim Tae Hee. In the top 10, 7 were entertainers (the other 3 were athletes). And out of the entire 40, 30 were entertainers.
Notice somebody missing from the top 10? Big Bang coming in at 2nd due to ranking 5th in influence, 5th in expertise, 7th in fame, and 2nd in income, while DBSK / TVXQ was ranked only 11th overall. 14th in influence, 6th in expertise, 32nd in fame, & 3rd in income.
The biggest reason for their ranking difference was due to their ranking in influence and fame. Big Bang was energetically appearing in both the music scene and entertainment scene. DBSK on the other hand released their 4th album in November, (late 2008) after more than 2 years and had focused more on the Japanese market. Another reason why Big Bang was second was because their album sales and search rankings were first and within the year had an income of 3,500,000,000 Won (roughly ~$2.5M). While Dong Bang Shin Ki's singles were 1st on the Oricon charts and appeared on many Japanese shows, in Korea they didn't make many TV appearances.
