Rolling Stone selects the Top 10 Korean groups that are most likely to succeed in America

Who are the top 10 Korean groups that would be mostly likely to succeed in America? On May 18th, popular American magazine,Rolling Stone, chose ten K-Pop groups that would be most likely to break through in America.
The top ten included Korea’s popular artists: Girls’ Generation, 2NE1, SISTAR, Wonder Girls, After School, miss A, Big Bang, SHINee, and BEAST, along with rookie solo singer Ailee.
All of the chosen artists were picked for similar reasons, such as the group members’ English language skills and the level of success they have achieved in Korea.
Rolling Stone analyzed the factors of the great popularity stating, “K-Pop is a mixture of trendy Western music and high-energy Japanese pop (J-Pop) which preys on listeners’ heads with repeated hooks, sometimes in English. It embraces genre fusion with both singing and rap, and emphasizes performance and strong visuals.”
Netizens who had heard this news commented, “They’re popular idols even worldwide,” “It would be really great if they did promotions in America,” and “I hope there will be a day when the names of Korea’s singers will be known worldwide.”
What do you think of this list? Who would you like to see debut in America?
