Welcome to the Weekly KPOP Chart for Week 4 of October 2026, covering 25 to 31 October 2026.
I have a few things to complete today, so I will keep this post short and get right to it. But I need to update you on some changes to the posting schedule starting next weekend.
Don’t worry, reviews this coming week will still be posted as usual. However, the posting schedule will change slightly for a week starting next weekend. The posting schedule will also pause song reviews for new songs from 9 to 14 November to make way for Rookie Week (a week-long period dedicated to reviewing songs from new 2026 KPOP rookies that I haven’t covered yet). Changes are as follows:
| Post | Usual schedule | Altered schedule |
| Album Review post | 7 November 2026 | No change |
| Weekly KPOP Chart for Week 1 of November 2026 | 8 November 2026 | To be posted on 15 November 2026 |
| Album Review post | 8 November 2026 | No change |
| Rookie Week No reviews for new songs for the week | 9 – 14 November 2026 | |
| Album Review post | 14 November 2026 | Cancelled; Rookie Week to run through to 14 November 2026 |
| Weekly KPOP Chart for Week 2 of November 2026 | 15 November 2026 | To be posted on 16 November 2026 |
Song reviews for new songs released during the week of 9 November will be posted as part of the return to the usual schedule from 16 November 2026.
What else have I been listening to?
Each week, I spotlight a song not on the Weekly KPOP Charts that I’ve been listening to. This week’s song is ATEEZ’s In Your Fantasy.
ICYMI – I finally got around to reviewing Golden Hour: Part 3, which features In Your Fantasy as a title track.
Non-Korean Song of the Week
Each week, I spotlight the top-ranked non-Korean Song on the Weekly KPOP Chart (since I haven’t been focusing on this area as much on my blog lately). This week’s Non-Korean Song of the Week is LISA’s latest release, Tarantino.
The Chart
BABYMONSTER’s DESERVE topped the chart this past week. Congratulations BABYMONSTER!
