[OSEN=지민경 기자] BLACKPINK won the no. 1 as soon as they made their MV broadcast comeback, proving their strong presence.
On SBS ‘Inkigayo’ aired on the 11th, BLACKPINK won the no. 1 trophy with their title track ‘Lovesick Girls’.
This week’s ‘Inkigayo’ chart accumulated digital music sales(55%), SNS scores(30%), album sales(10%), on-air points(10%), and viewer preliminary votes(5%) from September 28 until October 5.
BLACKPINK’s ‘THE ALBUM’ was digitally released on October 2 but physical copies were released on October 6, so album sales were not reflected on the final score. However, BLACKPINK became the no. 1 contender and won the trophy, noticing to bring a storm.
BLACKPINK has previously won the ‘triple crown’ on ‘Inkigayo’ through their pre-release single ‘Ice Cream’, by winning no. 1 for 3 consecutive weeks. They’ve won the title once again through ‘Lovesick Girls’ right after, setting a 4-week consecutive no. 1 record with 2 songs from the same album.

‘Lovesick Girls’ is a song with emotional melodies that go well with autumn, while ‘Pretty Savage’ presents BLACKPINK’s girl crush charms. BLACKPINK showed why they are truly world-class by dominating the stage through their powerful vocals and performance.
BLACKPINK’s success stood out through overseas charts. According to UK’s Official Charts announced on the 9th(local time), BLACKPINK’s official debut album ‘THE ALBUM’, released on the 2nd, was placed at no. 2. This is the first-ever record set by a K-Pop girl group and has renewed the best Asia female artist record set last year through ‘Kill This Love’(no. 40).
