Can someone tell me the updated definitions of RAK, CAK and PAK

I think rak is big boobs. I dont know the others, sorry.

RAK is #1 on all real time charts

CAK is #1 in all real time charts + all daily charts

PAK is #1 is all real time charts + all daily charts + weekly charts

I believe the easiest way to get PAKs used to be on monday when the weekly charts were reseted, but with YouTube I don't know if this hold any weight anymore

RAK is a made up thing, it doesn't really officially exists

CAK and PAKs are given by iChart. When the song qualifies the iChart will tag the music as "Certified All Kill" or "Perfect All Kill"

PS: I'm a 3rd gen boomer so I don't know if any of this holds true in 2023, so take all that with a grain of salty

Oh really? I thought this was common logic among kpop fans. Sometimes I forget I'm a chart nerd

I think I'm just heavily behind other K-pop fans in chart knowledge

Don't seek to become cursed like we are. Keep Kpop life simple for yourself.

Nerds like me and Icario can pour through chart data and try to contextualize it

For RAK: #1 on Melon, Genie, Bugs real-times + Flo

For CAK: #1 on all previous charts I mentioned and their Daily Charts + Vibe and Youtube Music

For PAK: Everything I mentioned + Ichart realtime and Ichart weekly

*Flo only has real-time chart and Vibe only has daily chart. Youtube Music is updated weekly.

So RAK is pretty much the only thing possible cuz idk if YT is possible. Vibe it’s rising a lot.

Unfortanely yes, because of Youtube

If It was another company and/or another group, we'd get a special video, but It's EXO ...

Quote from ISaidISaid

I know what they mean but I have no idea what charts currently exist still don’t know wtf a vibe is or how YouTube ties into ichart

At least freaking Mnet is gone. We cheered.

everything gets more confusing every year. the chart nerds who can keep up with it all have earned my respect.
