Lim Young-woong has named himself in the top 3 for the October advertising model brand reputation. Following BTS and RESCENE, he took 3rd place, demonstrating his continued presence in the advertising market beyond the music industry.

According to the results of the October 2026 advertising model brand reputation big data analysis announced by the Korea Corporate Reputation Research Institute on the 5th, the Lim Young-woong brand recorded 3rd place. 1st place was taken by BTS, and 2nd place by RESCENE, respectively.

Lim Young-woong's brand reputation index was tallied at 1,519,748. In detail, he recorded a participation index of 185,310, a media index of 292,845, a communication index of 595,546, and a community index of 446,047, showing particularly high figures in the communication and community areas.

This survey was conducted by analyzing 36,412,268 pieces of big data related to advertising models from September 5 to October 5. Compared to the 34,915,880 pieces in September, while the total advertising model brand big data itself increased by 4.29%, Lim Young-woong secured a spot in the top 3.

The rankings from 4th place onwards were also competitive. IVE, Kim Do-young, Go Youn-jung, BLACKPINK, Shin Min-a, Son Heung-min, and Heo Nam-jun followed, while Yoo Jae-suk, Gong Yoo, Lee Jung-jae, Park Ji-hoon, Seo Kang-joon, Lee Byung-hun, and Faker also appeared in the top 30.

Advertising model brand reputation is an indicator that analyzes the relationship between brands and consumers based on consumer participation, media interest, communication volume, and community activity. As it is not a figure that simply means the number of advertising appearances, it is used as an indicator to examine the level of interest and reaction surrounding a specific model online.

Lim Young-woong once again showed his unchanging public influence by being named in the top 3. While consistently maintaining a top position as an advertising model beyond his popularity as a singer, he continued his presence worthy of an 'advertising industry blue chip' in October.
