Seeing G-Idle hit a new peak made me wonder what peak groups have had with their last comeback on Melon.
Every group other than Blackpink and OMG have comeback with the new chart system which is easier to chart on then then the 24 Hits system, which existed between Jul 20 - Aug 21. Made sense to do latest comeback because of this.
There's quite a big drop off between the top 8 who all got into the top 10 and the rest. Half of the top 8 are 4th gen groups.
Longevity obviously matters as well but peak helps tell you who has hype and anticipation from the public mostly.
Aespa - Savage - 1st
Blackpink - Lovesick Girls - 2nd
OMG - Dun Dun Dance - 2nd
Ive - Eleven - 3rd
Got the Beat - Step Back - 3rd
StayC - Run2u - 5th
G-Idle - Tomboy - 7th (will rise more though)
Red Velvet - Queendom - 7th
Itzy - Loco - 34th
Twice - Scientist - 51st
Brave Girls - Thank You - 58th
Fromis9 - DM - 66th
Apink - Dilemma - 68th
Mamamoo - mumumumuch - 82nd
Kepler - Wadada - 91st
NMIXX - O.O. - 107th (slowly rising)
Viviz - Bopbop - 111th
