[Weekly Charts] 2nd Week of October 2018

Hello everybody. If you saw my tweet from yesterday, I have officially started my one week break before exams. But due to a few important assignments and exam preparation, I have decided to against publishing album reviews and Japanese song reviews for the next two weeks and I will return shortly after everything is wrapped up I will continue posting these weekly charts and song reviews as normal, so it isn’t massive hiatus like previous years.

For the past few weeks, a number of songs have dominated the Top 5 of the charts. This week, we have a slight changeup with three new songs entering the Top 5. Fromis_9’s new song, Love Bomb, clinched onto the 1st position. Sunmi’s Siren remains in the Top 5 by rising to the second position this week. Following Sunmi is Super Junior’s latest Latin comeback song with REIK, One More Time, and IU’s chart-topping single, BBIBBI. Finally, Oh My Girl finishes up the Top 5 with their single, Remember Me.

I did promise some things last week which I haven’t published yet. I will hold off on them and publish them once I have time (i.e. when the two weeks half-hiatus wraps up). Sorry. But next week, you can expect reviews for VAV, Stray Kids, Nakjoon, Kim Dong Han, Jung Eunji (APINK) and Lee Hong Gi, as they are the confirmed comebacks for next week, so far.

[Weekly Chart] 4th Week of September 2018

Welcome back to this week’s edition of the weekly charts. I am a little busy today but will still aim to publish an album review and one more song review to complete the ROOKIE WEEK. For those who don’t know, I spent the last week reviewing a different song from a ‘newly’ debut group (i.e. LUCENTE, NATURE, VERIVERY, NEONPUNCH, ONEWE & ONEWUS) each day, so do check those reviews if you haven’t read them yet!

Topping the charts this week is Oh My Girl’s Remember Me, which was bumped down to the second position last week. GOT7’s Lullaby, which topped the charts this week dropped down to the 3rd position. WJSN (Cosmic Girls) rose to the second position this week with Save Me Save You, while Sunmi’s Siren dropped down to the fourth position. Remaining steady from last week and finishing the top 5 is Dream Catcher’s What.

With ROOKIE WEEK nearing completion, we say hello to a number of new comebacks this week including iKON, Nior, The Rose, Soyou and some others. Keep your eyes peeled for those comebacks and reviews this week!

[Weekly Chart] 3rd Week of September 2018

It is Sunday, so you should all know what time it is. Welcome to this week’s Weekly KPOP Charts post, where we look back at where the songs ranked in the past week! It has been a very chill week for me this week, with not much happening. WordPress recently brought out a ‘streak’ function, where they record how many consecutive days I have posted. I am currently on 20 (with this post being the 21st day in the row I have posted), so clearly I am motivated to continue going on! So do expect more reviews to come out during the week!

Ranking at the very top of the charts this week is GOT7’s Lullaby, who made their comeback this week. Oh My Girl, Sunmi and NCT Dream, who ranked 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively last week, have all dropped down 1 position, filling up the 2nd, 3rd and 4th position. Dream Catcher is also a new release this week and they have taken the 5th position on the charts this week. For more of the charts, scroll down below.

[Weekly Chart] 2nd Week of September 2018

It is a Sunday, so you all know what time it is!!! Welcome to this week’s Weekly KPOP Charts for the second week of September 2018. It has been a big week with many new releases including Oh My Girl, Pentagon, SHINee, Hoya, DAY6 and Hyomin making their respective comebacks. And if you think that is an action-packed week, big names such as GOT7, WJSN (Cosmic Girls), Dream Catcher and UNI.T will be returning, so keep your eyes peeled for those reviews. On top of that, I have decided to write an album review for Sunmi, NCT Dream, Oh My Girl and Pentagon, so they should be released per usual schedule (or possibly sooner if I can fit it into my schedule).

Taking the top position of the chart this week is Oh My Girl’s latest comeback track, Remember Me. They clearly do not need to worry as I won’t be forgetting the song any time soon. Sunmi’s Siren, which was last week’s Number 1 Song, dropped down one position to the second position. Pentagon’s Naughty Boy also make its first appearance in the Top 5 in the fourth position. We also welcome back We Go Up by NCT Dream, who lands into the third position, while The Boyz’s Right Here rises to finish off the top 5.

As you may see I don’t have a Japanese review out this week as I couldn’t find any new releases. I am still digging around and if you know of any Japanese releases by a Korean artist, feel free to comment below and I will try to review it!

[Weekly Chart] 1st Week of September 2018

Welcome back to another week’s edition of the Weekly Charts. We enter the month of September this week, with what was a very busy week for me. But as it is Sunday, it is time to see which songs rank where on the charts for this week. It is going to be another quick one, so let’s get going!

Topping the charts this week is Sunmi’s Siren, which was quite an addictive song now that I think about it. Following behind is BTS’ IDOL, which continues to rise towards the top of the charts. Will it clinch onto the top spot next week? We just have to wait until next Sunday to find out. In the third position, SF9’s Now or Never returns back to the top 5 after topping the charts itself a few weeks back. The fourth position goes to 100%’s Heart while finishing off the top 5 is ASTRO’s Always You, which has been on the charts for a number of weeks now (just their first time in the Top 5).

As usual, for more of the Top 30 songs in the past week, scroll down below.

[Weekly Chart] 3rd Week of August 2018

Welcome back to another weekly charts post. Unfortunately, I am a little tied for time at the moment so it is going to be a quick one once again. If you haven’t heard, there will be no album reviews for this week due assignments and tests that I need to study for. We should all be back on the usual schedule next week. If I happen to disappear, assume my studies have consumed my soul and that I am asleep.

Topping the charts this week is (G)I-DLE’s comeback track, Hann. Following closely behind is Stray Kids’ with My Pace and DIA’s Woo Woo, who both made their respective comebacks last week. Red Velvet (also made their comeback last week with Power Up) remains in the fourth position, while Seventeen has yet to drop out of the Top 5 (since their debut on the charts with Oh My! a number of weeks back) and rounds out our top 5. Per usual, scroll down below for more of the charts.

[Weekly Chart] 2nd Week of August 2018

Welcome back to another edition of the weekly charts. Today, we are looking back at the ranking for the 2nd Week of August 2018. I just want to inform you that the next few weeks will be a little awkward as I am trying to finish a number of assignments and study for tests. I will still try to review all the new releases but do not be alarm if I randomly disappear for a few days.

If you scroll down below, we have a brand new song sitting at the top of the charts. SF9’s Now or Never is the chart-topping song of this week and this was expected given how mindblowing the song is. Seventeen continues their run in the top 5, rising back to the second position on the charts. iKON’s Killing Me (the other mindblowing track from last week) lands in the third position. And wrapping up the top 5 is Red Velvet’s Power Up and DIA’s Woo Woo.

[Weekly Chart] 1st Week of August 2018

Another week has already passed and we find ourselves on a Sunday, so we all know what that means! Welcome back to the Weekly Charts for the 1st Week of August 2018. It is time to see where the songs are ranked on the charts this week. And with a number of new releases that felt me speechless, I am very interested to see where these songs lie on the charts.

Last week’s number 1 song (Oh My! by Seventeen) dropped down by 3 to the 4th position, leaving the top spot for this week vacant for Laboum (with their song Between Us) to rise to the top of the chart for this week! Also rising to the 2nd and 3rd positions are 1,2,3 by Seungri (Big Bang) and I’m So Sick by APINK (who just won’t budge from the top of the charts). Finishing off the top 5 is KARD’s Ride On The Wind.

There were a number of songs jumping up a fair bit. But none of was that impressive when compared to Hyolyn’s jump from 48 to 13 (a total of 35 spots) from last week. For more of the charts, scroll down below!

[Weekly Chart] 4th Week of July 2018

July has flown right past us as we land ourselves on the chart post of the final week of July 2018. Welcome back and I hope you all had a lovely and fantastic week. I am cold and extremely busy, so let’s get cracking on!

Maintaining the top spot on the charts for the second week in a row is SEVENTEEN’s Oh My!, which is quite addictive as you can tell. TWICE’s Dance The Night Away will not budge from the Top 5 as it rises to the second position. In the thrid position, we find MYTEEN’s She Bad, while Kim Chungha’s Love U rose an incrdible 22 spots to take ouot the fourth position. And finally, filling in the fifith position (and completing the top 5) is UNB’s Black Heart, which I am still enjoying despite it being out for a number of weeks already.

I am still trying to catch up on reviews as there are a number of artists who made their comeback last week that I yet to review. I should have some of the reviews up in the coming day.

ALSO – I will be postponing the ‘Music Video Theory’ posts to the week after their schedule release (I will update this tomorrow) as I am quite busy with many assignments stacking up and job-hunting.

[Weekly Chart] 3rd Week of July 2018

Welcome back to this week’s edition of the chart! It is the 3rd week of July. I am back at university now, so things are going to be a little busy for me. But per usual, I will try to keep up with all the releases. Actually, the next few weeks seem like it going to extremely busy, in terms of releases, so it is going to be an interesting schedule. I do know that there are some releases I have yet to review and I will be doing so in the coming weeks!

Topping the charts this week is SEVENTEEN’s comeback track, Oh My! Following closely behind is Mamamoo’s Egotistic. The rest of the top 5 is made from songs from previous weeks. APINK’s I’m So Sick comes in the third position, while last week’s number 1 song Dance The Night Away (by TWICE) dropped down to the fourth position.  Completing the top 5 is BLACKPINK’s successful hit, Ddu-Du Ddu-Du.

[Weekly Chart] 2nd Week of July 2018

Welcome back to this week’s charts post. I am late once again due to a very busy day. And I can’t promise the next few weeks will be any better as I restart university and will have a bit on my plate this semester. But I will endevour to get reviews/posts out accordingly, so you don’t need to worry to much! I still have yesterday’s Japanese song review to publish, which I will do after this chart post is out!

But more importantly, who took out the top spot on the charts this week? As many would expect, TWICE sits neatly on the throne (i.e. first position) with their latest song, Dance The Night Away. In second position is last week’s number one song, APINK’s I’m So Sick. Momoland’s BAAM, AOA’s Bingle Bangle and Target’s Is It True completes the top 5 for this week. For the rest of the top 30 for this week, scroll down below!

I am super excited for the impending comebacks of Seventeen and Mamamoo tomorrow. And the comebacks of Triple H, Kim Chungha and Seungri (Big Bang) later this week as well. I may not be able to handle this week (due to these big comebacks), so follow me on Twitter to get a rolling update of how I am handling the week! (Was that subtle?)

[Weekly Chart] 1st Week of July 2018

Welcome to the second half of the year and the latest edition of the Weekly KPOP Chart. I was incredibly busy today hence why this chart is out a little later than usual. But at least I have managed to fit it in today! Let’s get on with the show before I bore you anymore!

Last week I posted a recap of the top songs from this segment (Weekly KPOP Charts), which you can view by clicking here. This week, I will be doing a more personalised list of my favourite songs and this will be released on Wednesday!

Topping the charts this week is APINK’s latest comeback, I’m So Sick. DAY6’s Shoot Me (last week’s Number 1 song) dropped down to the second position. Lovelyz’s Wag-Zak has started out on the third position, while Momoland’s BAAM has dropped to the fourth position. Finishing the top 5 is SHINee’s Our Page, which has dropped down one position.

Per usual, scroll down for the rest of the chart!
