Apologies for the week delay with what was supposed to be last week’s Weekly KPOP Chart. For those who have missed it, I have been moving out to my own place, and things got a bit hectic as you might suspect. The Weekly KPOP Chart post that is supposed to be published today might come out in a couple of days as I settle in and continue to balance this blog, unpacking, work and a whole bunch of other boring stuff. I won’t keep you for long anymore. Here are the Weekly KPOP Chart post for the 1st Week of August 2022.
Recap & New releases of the Week
During the first week of August 2022, I posted reviews for the new releases, NewJean’s Cookie and YENA’s SMARTPHONE. I also posted reviews for Stray Kids’ FREEZE and Lonely St., and album reviews for (G)I-DLE and MIYEON.
Other releases from this particular week includes:
- Time Out – Stray Kids

Non-Korean Release of the Week
The first week of August 2022 saw TWICE’s Celebrate become the non-Korean release of the week. It ranked in the 7th position. Per most of the international collaborations and singles by Korean artists, I have yet to review this one. But I will get around to it eventually!
