Powerhouse girl groups stamped their authority in the OH! Chart this week. However, can the four nominated soloists come to spoil the party?
How the OH!Chart system works:
The chart is divided into three different categories: Gaon Streaming and Downloads (55%), Hanteo Physical Sales (25%), and OH User Voting (20%). OH users are allowed to vote and have a say in the overall chart ranks of certain songs each week. OH users can vote for more than one nominee but cannot vote for the same nominee more than once. Every week, data from the three categories will be gathered and weighted accordingly. The artists with the 10 highest scores will make it onto the chart. If an artist wins a triple crown, their results will not be recorded in future charts.
Results:
Third-year girl group Mamamoo overtook last week’s winner G-Dragon to claim their first win on the OH! Chart. Mamamoo finished on 17.21 points, just 0.63 points ahead of G-Dragon (16.58 points).

NO.1 SPOTLIGHT: Mamamoo
Previous ranking: Second
Talented girl group Mamamoo’s latest release “Yes I Am” is a catchy dance track that features powerful vocals and an addictive chorus. There is a quirky and cheeky vibe to the song. The MV is colourful and sexy, which truly defines the group’s signature style. This gem is likely to keep on succeeding throughout the ladies’ promotional period.
