PAKs are going to be so much harder to get now 
spotify doesnt make sense lol
Bugs out too pls...
It's a pretty good thing imo, granted it isn't easy for international fans to change their Spotify location to South Korea with some kind of VPN function
its not even that, nobody uses it..
LOCO @ 10 was 6.6k streams in a day.
#1 is literally like 25K streams,
id bet spotify paid off ichart to include them to get more users lol
Heres the full list, Savage is #1 with 25k steams.
spotify doesnt make sense lol
Apple Music too, those are dead over there and nobody uses them. Just remove Bugs and add on YT Music 
why would they include nugu charts?
I mean spotify numbers in Korea is like what? sometimes even songs with 8000 plays per day rank 1st... that's stupid...
pabo iChart can add this to some kind of point system but it shouldn't interfer with all-kills...
Anyway like I said PAKs are going to be ALOT harder. Previously I used to think PAKs were mainly a matter of good timing but if they do include these into iChart, they're going to be alot harder to get unless your song is an absolute SMASH upon release\when it starts rising 
Ain’t nobody uses Apple Music and Spotify in Korea
Bugs out too pls...

Celebrity still appeared in the Korean charts even when Kakao M songs weren't available in Spotify Korea. So it was people either VPNing in or VPNing out.
interesting
Interesting. I wonder how it all will affect songs' performance, probably those CAK/PAK things will be even harder to get, at least for non-idol artists since youtube is also considered. They need to get rid if bugs tho, there are like 3 and a half users there but it always go on repair mode, like, who can even crash it?...

Why bugs out, it has a bigger market share than apple and spotify combined in korea.
For spotify/youtube all that is needed is a korean ip (vpn) and it will count for them. Apple im note sure about.
The main problem with YT, Spotify and Apple Music is going to be how easy they are going to be manipulated by international fans.
Spotify Premium's and Apple Music's libraries are tied to your billing country. I've tried to use a VPN to access the libraries of other countries but they didn't let me. I don't know about YouTube Music Premium.
The problem is going to be Spotify Free and standard YouTube because they're tied to your IP, not your billing country since you don't even have billing.
It also isn't clear whether the charts are tied to your IP or to your billing country.
Spotify was launched in South Korea on February 1st without the Kakao M library. Yet, IU was charting until February 16 when Celebrity was at #8. On February 17, she was purged from the charts. And It wasn't until February 28 that Kakao M songs were removed from Spotify worldwide.
The only explanation is users accessing the library of other countries in South Korea to be able to circumvent the Kakao M restriction. So the charts must've been tied to the IP address. Something was fixed on February 17, but since other songs didn't experience a drop in streams these accounts were either streaming only IU or they kept counting for the charts.
