Girls' Generation lands atop Mnet singles chart

Female K-pop group Girls' Generation has stormed to the top of music cable channel Mnet's singles chart with their latest single "Oh!"

The nine-member girl group, who released the title track to their second full-length album less than a week ago, ranked No. 1 on Mnet's weekly singles chart for the final week of January.

The girl group gave their comeback performance on MBC's music program "Music Central" last Saturday, singing "Oh!" and song "Show Show Show," also from their new album.

Boy band 2AM's "I Can't Let You Go" climbed four slots to place second on the chart and last week's winner CNBLUE topped off the top three with their hit single "Alone."

Meanwhile, 2AM's first album "I Can't Let You Go" remained the best-selling album for the second consecutive week while Girls' Generation "Oh!" entered the chart at No. 2, pushing back T-ara's "Absolute First Album" a spot to third place.
