The Inkigayo Chart is a music program record chart on Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) that gives an award to the best-performing single of the week in South Korea. The chart measured digital performance in domestic online music services (55%), social media via YouTube views (35%), network on-air time (10%), advanced viewer votes (5%), and album sales (5%) in its ranking methodology throughout January 2019.[1] Beginning on February 3, Inkigayo implemented modifications for its measurements of albums (up to 10%) and social media (down to 30%).[2] Songs that spend three weeks at number one are awarded a Triple Crown and are removed from the chart and ineligible to win again. Seventeen member Mingyu and DIA member Jung Chae-yeon had hosted the show together since November 11, 2018.. Chae-yeon was later replaced by actress Shin Eun-soo starting the February 17 broadcast. Mingyu and Eun-soo continued to host the show together till October 6, 2019, when they were replaced by Monsta X member Lee Min-hyuk, NCT member Jaehyun and April member Lee Na-eun.
