biggest 3rd gen hit for each year (GG edition)

so i take it this is based solely on digitals ?

Again, psycho should be in 2020

Also there is more, why is Red flavor the biggest in 2017 when both AIIYL & Knock Knock were higher on gaon year end chart. The biggest hit ended up being AIIYL because of its crazy longevity anyways, the song is literally charting on gaon top 200 in 2021

Um, what about Fancy?

People always underrated BP earlier hits honestly.

Yeah, aiiyl would probably be another 1 billion+ index on gaon if it released in 2018 and people still downplay that songs national hit status lol

Is AOA and Exid considered as 3rd gen if so Heart Attack and AhYeah/ Up & Down should be included in 2015.

I think Dolphin should also be included in 2020.

If this is just domestically

• AIIYL is 1st for 2017
• Dolphin is 1st for 2020.
• LIKEY replaces Knock Knock in 2017 runner-ups.

Other than that, I agree.

If it's just korean digitals, Dolphin and Non stop both have more gaon points that HWLT. Dolphin is clearly first.

I think this is pretty accurate, but wasn't TT a bigger hit for Twice in 2016 than Cheer Up? I thought that was the hit that really cemented their place as ngg. Unless you're calculating it based on streams or something and TT had fewer in 2016 because it was at the end of the year?

Cheer Up is easily twice's biggest song in Korea. DTNA and TT are pretty similar actually

2018: starry night mamamoo

The competition that month of its release was INTENSE otherwise starry nighy could have easily been soty

Nah. D4 (1.284 billion), DTNA (1.098 billion), and Bboom Bboom (1.134 billion) are all bigger. Starry Night has 912 million

D4 didn't win any SOTY because Love Scenario was the biggest song of the year and we don't talk about MAMA soty that year.
