It is a brand new month! Welcome back to the Weekly KPOP Chart for the 1st Week Of August 2023. It has been a busy week for me, with a lot of work and stuff to do. As a result, that song review which I had intended to post later on during the week did not go up. But I will make sure it will be going up later this week. An album review is also on its way today. But as usual, here is the Weekly KPOP Chart.
Recap of the past week
This past week has been quite busy and I managed to post:
- song reviews for new releases, such as ITZY’s CAKE, INFINITE’s New Emotions, KWON EUNBI’s The Flash, MAMAMOO+ dangdang and xikers’s DO or DIE, and
- an international song reviews post featuring NCT DREAM’s Best Friend Ever, Jackson Wang’s Cheetah, Amber Liu’s No More Sad Songs and TVXQ’s PARALLEL PARALLEL, and
- album reviews for ONEW’s Circle and KAI’s Rover.
Joining all those new releases this week as new releases are the following songs:
- Like A Wind – VROMANCE
- Wonder Land – SEVENUS
- BLUE – XEED
- Love Song – Yong Junhyung
- Break Out – CHEN (EXO)
- BLOSSOM – ENHYPEN

- PARTY’S NOT OVER – Stray Kids
Throwback Song of the Week
This week’s throwback song is a Brown Eyed Girls’ song (one of my favourite KPOP artists all-time). I came across their name somewhere during the week (can’t remember where or the circumstances). But naturally, a binge occurred. And so, this week’s throwback song pick is their 2014 release, Kill Bill.
Non-Korean Song of the Week
Each week, I feature the highest ranking non-Korean song by a Korean artist in this part of the Weekly KPOP Charts. For the 1st Week of August 2023, that song is TXT and Jonas Brother’s collaboration single, Do It Like This.
