Amid the ongoing popularity of love songs, 2NE1's buoyant "I LOVE YOU" has bobbed back to No. 1 on Gaon's weekly singles chart
After being shoved under by SISTAR's "Loving You" in the first week of July, 2NE1 reclaimed the top spot with the cross-genre song of electronic and trot music last week, Gaon's website showed on Thursday.
T-ara's "DAY BY DAY" followed next by climbing up a slot, while the former chart-topper SISTAR sat at No. 3 with "Loving U."
Meanwhile, CNBLUE's Lee Jong-hyun entered the chart at No. 4 with "My Love," his song listed in the soundtrack to SBS' weekend TV series "Gentleman's Dignity."
Other popular K-pop singles of the week include Busker Busker's "If You Really Love Me," Lee Hyun of 8eight's "My Heart Hurts," Juniel's "illa illa," December's "Unfinished" and Huh Gak's "One Person."
In the meantime, it was a battle of boy bands on Gaon's album chart during the second week of July.
Super Junior's sixth studio effort "Sexy, Free & Single," released on July 1, has maintained its spot atop the album chart for a second week in a row.
2PM member Jang Wooyoung's first mini-album "23, Male, Single" sat at the second spot, followed by ZE:A's sophomore album "SPECTACULAR."
