Ga-in and Jo Kwon top Mnet's singles chart

Brown Eyed Girls singer Ga-in and boy band 2AM member Jo Kwon have topped Mnet's weekly singles charts with their duet "We Fell In Love" for the week of January 4-10.

The musical collaboration by the duo -- who play a make-believe couple on Korea's popular variety segment "We Got Married" on major broadcaster MBC -- debuted at No. 17 four weeks ago, spent two weeks at No. 2 and finally reached the top spot.

Lee Seung-gi's "Like The First Time, Like That Time", which features Kang Min-kyung from female K-pop duo Davichi, dropped to second place after spending a week on top. Another former chart-topper "Because Of You", by girl band After School, climbed back up to No. 3 after spending two weeks a rank lower.

Meanwhile, six-member girl group T-ara had the best-selling album during the same period, making it their third time to top the chart. Their "Absolute First Album" has ranked at the top two spots for the past five weeks since it was released on November 27.

Boy band 2PM's first full-length album "1:59 PM" moved up a slot to No. 2 while Younha's third album "Part. B Growing Season" dropped a spot from last week to stand at No. 3.
