Another Chart ‘All-Kill’ by iKON Despite a Flood of New Releases
[OSEN=정지원 기자] iKON’s ‘LOVE SCNARIO’ rebooted its no. 1 march in music charts.
As of February 15, 2 PM, iKON’s ‘LOVE SCENARIO’ is at no. 1 in all major Korean music streaming platforms including Melon, Mnet, Genie, Soribada, Bugs, Olleh, Naver, and Monkey 3.
Despite a flood of newly released songs, iKON is proving their presence in music charts by positioning themselves at no. 1 for 22 days. Although new songs temporarily took the no. 1 spot in the process, iKON quickly regained their top spot and is expanding their no. 1 territory in charts.
On the 6th weekly ranking announced by Gaon Charts on the same day, iKON received a triple crown. They showed off their strength in charts by dominating no. 1 spots in Comprehensive Digital, Download, and Streaming Charts.
Despite a lot of artists aiming for no. 1 using their comeback advantage, iKON’s ‘LOVE SCENARIO’ kept its top spot solely with the power of music itself.
iKON achieved a historical milestone through their recent comeback. Unprecedentedly as a boy-group, they have topped 2 consecutive weekly charts, while maintaining their no. 1 spot in daily charts for 18 consecutive days, making ‘LOVE SCENARIO’ a record that maintained its no. 1 position for the longest period in the last 3 years.
iKON is also receiving positive feedback from foreign markets. Many well-known foreign medias including Billboard and BuzzFeed gave positive reviews on iKON’s growth and musicality, while Time chose iKON as one of the 6 ‘Most Popular K-Pop Groups’.
iKON is currently actively promoting their album by communicating with the public through appearances in variety programs and radio programs.
