Kim Bo-kyung's first album "The First Day" [Sony Music]

Songstress Kim Bo-kyung’s debut song “Day by Day” took first place on music cable channel Mnet’s weekly singles chart during the week of January 31 to February 6, climbing up a step from the previous week.

The song which is the title track to singer Kim's first mini-album "The First Day" released on January 24, is a ballad that expresses one's sorrow after a break up.

Kim, 20, debuted after appearing on Mnet's singing competition "Superstar K2" last year through which she became popular after singing Kelly Clarkson's "Because of You."

Meanwhile, three-member girl group SeeYa’s good-bye song “You’re Too Wonderful For Me” which topped the chart last time, went down a step to land on second place.

The song, one of the two title tracks to the group’s final album “See You Again," is a rhythmical ballad that incorporates sounds from the piano and stringed instruments.

Third on the chart was G.NA’s “Black & White,” a song that tells of two lovers who are different in character like the colors black and white.

Coming from her first full-length album of the same name released in mid-January, the song climbed up three steps from the previous week to reach its current position.

Meanwhile on the albums chart, GD&T.O.P’s first album “GD&T.O.P” which contains various hip-hop songs, topped the chart after gaining a step from the last week of January.

Consequently, Seungri's first mini-album "V.V.I.P" which was the previous winner, got pushed back to take second place.

GD, T.O.P. and Seungri are all part of the five-member male group Big Bang, currently pursuing their singing careers as either a solo or duo but are also preparing for a comeback as a whole group by late this month.

SeeYa’s “See You Again” released on January 21, again took the third place on the chart for second consecutive week.

The members notified last December that they will wrap up their five-year journey as a trio after releasing their latest album composed of 13 of SeeYa’s past hit songs plus two new songs “You’re Too Wonderful For Me” and “The Last.”
