Choi Minho and Exo are the most searched Korean Celebrities in the Philippines.

Google Philippines released its annual year-end Zeitgeist, a collection of the top search queries by Filipinos on google.com.ph. EXO and SHINee’s Choi Minho ranked first as the most searched Korean Celebrities in the Philippines in 2013. Amazing. Well, "To The Beautiful You' really earned Minho a lot of fans here in the Philippines. And yeah, undoubtedly, Exo's popularity in the Philippines is not a joke. I can see a lot of girls wearing Wolf 88 T-shirts at school. Filipino fans really like flower boys, based on my observation.
