At least they got something right.
Im side eyeing the #3 though, Interscope playlisting power really knows no bounds. Its like that time when Drake was on every playlist ever.

As someone w no knowledge on this - how are Spotify lists generally created? Is it algorithms based on previous listenings or paid advertisements from companies?
This kind of playlists are curated.
Top 50 lists are based on charts and the release radar type paylists are personal to user and algorithmic. Though Spotify had plans to allow payments to be pushed higher on algorithmic playlists as well.

Thank you for - as always - solid and well researched information :)
“our team of Korean music experts ” Yeah well that could mean pretty much anything
:D -
Well, it's expected. They big domestically and internationally. Anyways, I'm curious since Spotify now available in SK, would that affect the other domestic streaming chart? I mean, the listener might get be divided to stream which platform. But, I guess idol groups is not much get attention from the public outside a few groups.

lol although i obviously disagree about Dyna, i agree completely about Driver's License. It's a GREAT song, one of the two best American pop songs i've heard in the past year. But what the hell is it doing on this playlist???

It's catching on in Korea or at least they're probably trying to see what all the hype is about

Can people stop with the #1. These lists dont go by streams or ULs like Korean providers. The just put popular songs near the top and adjust accordingly. LSG was #1 yesterday on this same playlist
No it wasnt. Dynamite has been #1 since this one was created. LSG was on a different, smaller playlist.
And obviously it doesnt matter, these playlists have less than 3000 subscribers. It was just nice to see BTS receiving the curated playlisting they deserve at least here, for once in their career.
