Is 2021 the year of old songs topping charts?

It's because the OSTs from Romance 101 are dominating the charts.

And the song is actually from 2012, not 2016.

OST or not, it's a really good song

Quote from itiswhatitisss

tbh you have a point. Hold My Hand by IU went viral recently as well, and that song is almost a decade old.

But this one is not surprising because it's an OST for a Webtoon that's really popular.

True Beauty?

Oh jesus, ANOTHER repetitive generic ballad blowing up the charts??? And from a cartoon?

What is the matter with Korea these days? Fantastic Kpop songs like Cry for Me, So Bad, and Star get paid dust while people zombie stream the same generic ballad over and over and over again.

No, Romance 101

Quote from bartkun

yeah it's webtoon ost isn't it?

so it's more like webtoon itself is doing whole job not song itself

Are you reading it? Is it good?

So Eunji and Yoseob remake of their 2012 song topped Genie and Bugs

Can you imagine if all the 2nd Gen groups got together for a reunion or something, and just sing their old songs who knows maybe the song might rise on the charts as well.

It would be far better for the actual 2nd gen groups to bring back their best bops than another OST ballad

Damn, you’re so right!

It is a nice song. Deserved

I hope this is next

It's not too late to make HV the premier sexy AND cute group

If that's the case, I'm hoping T-ARA songs will blew up again. Their bops after the scandal deserves more attention!

It's now #2 on MelOn

That'd be awesome

Ost songs always do good on the charts but also ost songs are quality made. It's also where kpop idols can actually display their talent away from kpop music.
