BTS Rises With 'IDOL'; Soompi's K-Pop Music Chart 2018, September Week 2

BTS’s “IDOL” rises up 12 spots to become our new No. 1 song! “IDOL” dominated in its second week on the chart, winning on “Inkigayo” and “Music Bank” and also topping many internet charts. Internationally, their new album “LOVE YOURSELF: Answer” topped the Billboard 200 Albums Chart, their second straight No. 1 album on the Billboard chart. BTS has also just released a new international version of “IDOL” featuring Nicki Minaj. Congratulations to BTS!

“IDOL” is the title song of BTS’s repackaged third album “LOVE YOURSELF: Answer.” It is a house style hip hop song in GQOM style, a genre that is popular in South Africa. It also combines traditional elements of Korean music, making this a very unique song.

The strength of “IDOL” moved last week’s champion, Red Velvet’s “Power Up” down one spot to No. 2. Despite giving up the top spot, “Power Up” still managed to win on “M!Countdown” last week.

Rounding out the top three is MAMAMOO’s “Egotistic,” down one spot to No. 3.
