Why ‘Lollipop’ was not up for #1 on Music Bank K-Chart again?

bb_2ne1_190409

Fans are puzzled by ‘Lollipop’, sang by Big Bang and 2NE1, disappeared on KBS Music Bank K Chart #1 spot contestant list in just 1 week.

The song was up for the #1 spot on the chart during the show on 10th April, together with Super Junior‘s ‘Sorry Sorry’ and Son DamBi‘s ‘Saturday Night’. Back then, Son DamBi‘s ‘Saturday Night’ had won the #1 spot.

The song was expected to be up for the #1 spot again on 17th April but many fans are puzzled why it did not appear for the #1 contestant list again, and they had posted up queries on the forums on Music Bank website.

It was then explained that the song being a CM song, has limited number of times it can be up on the chart. This is the regulations set for CM songs for the chart in view for that there will be product placement on the show.

Especially since ‘Lollipop’ is the name of the product it is used for promoting. The reason why the song was up on the chart on the 10th was that it was #1 on various online charts.

  1. although it’s a song just for a CF
    i think the song is really good .
    and it deserves awards .
    but because they don’t actually promote it ..
    no doubt .
    why it disappeared from the chart ..

  2. Aw, how about Shinhwa?
    Just wait until they comeback! :)

  8. yay the wondergirls! even though it seems as if they disappeared out of the scene for a while due to their focus on the u.s market, their impact is still huge over in korea and thailand. i’m so proud of them. i love the wondergirls!

  9. on one of Thailand’s top radio stations “Nobody” was no.1 for 6 weeks straight … the nobody craze over there is really big

  10. YAY WONDER GIRLS!

  11. YAY WONDER GIRLS!
    AM not surprised since they’ve been doing a lot lately.
    I mean, expanding in the US market, that takes a lot of confidence and hard work.
    Who cares about who has more fans…
    GO WG<3

  12. congrats to the wonder girls but i think super junior would be number one if they asked more people haha

  13. Awww, that sucks. But Lollipop would of gotten #1 again =]
    One day, the will perform that song, then will be very
    smiley.
    Ahahaha oh yeahh.
    Congrats Wonder Girls. Wow i’m surprise Super Junior isn’t
    #1 for Thai Korean Singers.

  14. Not surprise. WG is like the IT thing in Thailand right now. They’re really popular in Thailand, their latest song Nobody is everywhere right now. Many Thai celebrities love them too and there are a lot of wg fans over there.

  15. haha, LOLLIPOP was doing too good for a cf song. >,<
    lolli-lolli-pop-pop!

    i don’t care about that Thai poll because WG, Rain, Super Junior, Big Bang, and DBSK were only a few points away from each other!
    They only asked less than 500 people. There’s a lot of Super Junior fans in Thailand, probably more than 500 lol.
