Yahoo! Japan, known as the largest internet portal in the country, recently announced the results for their "First Half of 2011 Search Ranking". The interesting outcome has sparked the interest of many both due to the emergence of rising stars and the presence of familiar names.
According to the list, Girls' Generation was ranked fourth under the category for the most searched artists. Fellow Korean girl group Kara also had a high placing as they claimed the fifth spot. The top place was given to Japan's national girl group AKB48, who succeeded in earning spots for the other categories as well. Popular male group Arashi also came in second.
