Leessang's new single voted Cyworld's "Song of the Month"

Korean hip-hop duo Leessang's recent hit single has been selected "Song of the Month" by social networking site Cyworld, according to the group's agency on Tuesday.

The song "Woman Who Can't Break Up, Man Who Can't Leave" won the title for the 40th Digital Music Awards, hosted by Cyworld, Jungle Entertainment said in a press release.

The Digital Music Awards is a monthly music poll which is based on the background music that some 24 million users purchase for their personal 'minihompy' accounts.

"Leave" is the title song from the duo's 6th album "Hexagonal", which was released on October 6. Other tracks from the album are currently placed on Cyworld music chart as well.

The song is also leading the votes for Best Hip-Hop and Best Music Video for the upcoming 2009 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA).

Leessang, who formed and debuted in 2002, is made up of Kang Hee-gun ("Gary") and Gill Seong-joon ("Gill"). They have released six albums to date and have collaborated with many top Korean hip-hop artists including Big Mama King, Drunken Tiger and T.
