Let's understand Korean music charts and album charts!

「I want my favorite to be number 1 on a music program.! ”, first of all, let’s understand about Korea’s “sound source chart” and “record chart” ^^

「record chart」… A ranking based on the number of albums sold. There are two types: “Hunt Chart” and “Gaon Chart (Circle Chart)”

 

 

Korean music programs are basically “Sound source results」「Record score」「YouTube views」「fan vote」「Broadcast score” to scoreIt will be done!
