The most striking aspect of this achievement is the unusual record of 292 consecutive weeks at number one. This long-term performance is difficult to explain solely through concentrated interest in a specific period or temporary buzz. The fact that he has maintained the lead for years in a platform vote where fans participate directly demonstrates the steady interest and active participation of the support base for Lim Young-woong.

Heroic Age is at the center of this record. Fans do not stop at supporting Lim Young-woong's new songs, performances, and broadcasting activities; they also continuously participate in online voting and various fan activities. In particular, the fandom's organizational strength and solidarity are notable, as they exert influence on the weekly tallied rankings through long-term voluntary participation.

The singer delivers emotion to fans through music and stages, and the fans respond through voting, cheering, and various activities. This interaction has continued for a long time, accumulating into the record of 292 consecutive weeks at number one.

However, as the Idol Chart Rating Ranking is an indicator tallied based on the voting participation of the platform's users, it is necessary to distinguish it from figures that directly represent the preferences of the general public. Nevertheless, the fact that he has held the top position for 292 consecutive weeks under the same tallying criteria is a clear achievement showing the continuous interest of the fandom toward Lim Young-woong.

306,364 votes, 31,199 likes, and 292 consecutive weeks at number one. Every single number contains the steady participation and support of Heroic Age.
