HUNTR/X, HWASA, idntt, and CORTIS powered Circle Chart Week 2 of 2026, locking in major wins across global, digital, and album categories.
The Korea Music Content Association announced that Week 2 (January 4th–10th) saw HUNTR/X claim No. 1 on the Global K-pop Chart, HWASA sweep five charts, idntt top the Album Chart, and CORTIS lead the Retail Album Chart.
HUNTR/X, joined by Ejae, Audrey Nuna, Rei Ami, and the KPop Demon Hunters Cast, extended their streak with “Golden,” now No. 1 on the Global K-pop Chart for 28 straight weeks. The track, from Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters OST, became an instant global hit and finished 2025 as the year-end Global K-pop Chart topper.
HWASA delivered the week’s biggest moment. After her stage at the Blue Dragon Film Awards (46th), “Good Goodbye” surged back up the charts, landing No. 1 on Digital (Circle Index: 16,858,692), Streaming, V Caller Ring, Ringtone, and Dial Tone to complete a rare five-crown sweep. The ballad centers on a sincere farewell to a past love, carried by HWASA’s raw, emotive vocals.
idntt took No. 1 on the Album Chart with <yesweare> (Cosmo), moving 368,139 copies. The five-track release explores identity and growth, led by the title song “Pretty Boy Swag.”
CORTIS topped the Retail Album Chart with their debut album COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES, posting 61,923 copies in offline sales. Released last September, the album frames ambition as a mission statement, anchored by the title track “What You Want.”
On the Download Chart, HADES hit No. 1 with “Planet B,” a sentimental take on reunion across parallel worlds. The Social Chart 3.0 stayed firmly with ILLIT for a third straight week, while ZEROBASEONE logged the biggest week-over-week jump.
Meanwhile, new entries within the Global K-pop Chart Top 200 for Week 2 included Apink’s “Love Me More,” which debuted at No. 75.
