Super Junior Just Set An Impressive Record By Topping KKBOX’s Music Charts For 122 Consecutive Weeks
On March 6, Super Junior officially set a very impressive new record on Taiwan’s biggest online music site, KKBOX, with 122 consecutive weeks at no. 1 on the site’s Korean Albums Chart.
Since November 6, 2017, Super Junior have consistently been in the no. 1 spot on KKBOX’s chart when their 8th full album Play shot straight to the top. Play remained in the position for 23 weeks until their 8th repacked album, Replay, took over the spot.
After that, Replay remained in the top position for the next 79 weeks. The very next week, Super Junior’s 9th full album Time Slip slid into no. 1. The album continued to dominate for the next 15 weeks before the position was handed over to their 9th repacked album Timeless which continues to hold that position.
This all means that as of March 6, 2020, Super Junior has spent 122 consecutive weeks at no. 1 on the chart!
While already impressive enough, Super Junior also set a record for the longest chart-topping Korean album on KKBOX, while breaking their own record. Previously, Super Junior had set the record on the site with 121 weeks from 2010 to 2012!
By breaking their own record and setting a brand new one, there’s no doubt that Super Junior have reaffirmed their “Asian Hallyu King” title! Congratulations Super Junior!
