Korean singer PSY topped Gaon's singles chart last week, placing four of five tracks listed in his sixth mini-album in the top ten.
¡°Gangnam Style,¡± the title tune of PSY¡¯s "Six Rules, Part. 1," earned the top seed on the chart in the third week of July, edging out singles by BEAST and 2NE1, Gaon¡¯s website showed Thursday.
Enlisting talented artists such as G-Dragon of Big Bang, LeeSSang, and YB for the album that has already gone viral online, Psy has successfully broken his two-years hiatus with his six-times wittier album.
His "Passionate Goodbye,"which ballad singer Sung Si-kyung featured in, sat at No. 4.
With a pretty big gap with the No. 1, K-pop idol BEAST¡¯s new single ¡°Midnight,¡± a sentimental post-breakup song, landed at the second place.
The group is expecting to rank higher next week with their newly released mini-album "Midnight Sun."
Sitting at No. 3 is 2NE1, the last week¡¯s chart-topper who returned to the music scene early this month with the cross-genre song of electronic and trot music, "I LOVE YOU."
Additionally, T-ara¡¯s ¡°Day By Day,¡± the title track of the girls¡¯ mini-album of the same name, took the fifth place.
Other songs in the top ten are CNBLUE's Lee Jong-hyun¡¯s drama soundtrack "My Love," Brown Eyed Girl¡¯s newest single ¡°One Summer Night,¡± SISTAR's summer tune "Loving You," and PSY¡¯s other new tracks ¡°Tree Frog¡± and ¡°Seventy Seven 101.¡±
Over on the album chart, Super Junior kept their third-week reign with ¡°Sexy, Free & Single" during the same time frame.
Following behind the 13-member group is PSY¡¯s sixth mini-album, and 2PM member Jang Wooyoung's first solo mini-album "23, Male, Single" came next at No.3.
