South Korea Songs

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

South Korea Songs is a music record chart in South Korea compiled by Billboard since May 7, 2022, and is a replacement for the Billboard K-pop Hot 100 chart that was discontinued one week prior. The chart is updated every Tuesday on Billboard's website. It is part of Billboard's Hits of the World chart collection, ranking the top 25 songs weekly in more than 40 countries around the globe.[1]

The first number-one song on the chart was "Still Life" by Big Bang on the issue dated May 7, 2022.[2] The current number-one song on the chart, as of the issue dated April 20, 2024, is "Magnetic" by Illit.[3]

Methodology[edit]

The chart tracks songs' performance from Friday to Thursday. Chart rankings are based on digital downloads from full-service digital music retailers (sales from direct-to-consumer sites such as an individual artist's store are excluded) and online streaming occurring in South Korea during the tracking period. All data are provided by Luminate Data, formerly MRC Data.[4]
