Welcome back to another Weekly KPOP Chart post – this time for the 2nd Week of May 2024. Still no luck on coverage of new KPOP tracks. Just four reviews this week – one of which at the start of the week and the rest all posted yesterday. Again, I am hoping to be more productive week on the blog from tomorrow. Let’s see how I go. This coming week promises comebacks from ZEROBASEONE, aespa, ENHYPEN, Mark (from NCT), DXMON, ITZY and more. Per usual, you will have to wait to see who I cover in the new week – until then, here is the Weekly KPOP Charts for the 2nd Week of May 2024.
Throwback Song of the Week
Each week I pick a song from the past to feature in this segment. It is recognition for the fact I listen to more than just the currently charting songs. And revisiting these songs are truly a blast from the past. Plus, I am hoping that this segment introduces new listeners to some great songs that I have enjoyed from my many years of listening to KPOP. This week is a song that I forgot about for a while (despite it being featured in this segment before). But it randomly appeared in my mind this week and I had to relive it! The song is titled Dreamer, which was HISTORY’s debut track from 2013. The track and music video features IU.
Non-Korean Song of the Week
As my focus on this blog is primarily on KPOP songs, I draw attention to a particular song that isn’t in the Korean language in this part of the Weekly KPOP Chart post. That song is the top ranking non-Korean song on each Weekly KPOP Chart post. The past week’s non-Korean song of the week is Stray Kids’ fresh new release Lose My Breath, which features Charlie Puth. It ranks in the 11th position this week.
