Gaon Digital Sales Chart, week 12


A bunch of indie songs left the top 200 of Gaon’s digital chart last week and now none only one is in the top 100, but at least there was one were a few newcomers:

k-indie @ Gaon Digital Chart – March 26, 2011
85. Jaurim – Something Good
119. 10cm – 사랑은 은하수 다방에서
120. Autumn Vacation – 오래된 커플
121. 10cm – 그게 아니고
135. Lucite TokkiGo [trailer]
136. Jaurim – 미안해 널 미워해 [MV]
141. 10cm – 아메리카노
142. Monni – 망설이지 마요

168. 10cm – 오늘밤은 어둠이 무서워요 [MV]
195. MiMi Sisters – 대답해주오 (Feat. Lowdown 30)

Update April 1: Because of a much needed comment Jaurim too have been added to the list above. And doing so I found that I had missed the addition of Autumn Vacation completely!

    Had it been The Geeks I would’ve definitely included them on the list. From what I understand the Geeks that just debuted are more about hip hop – something that is only on very rare occasions covered on this blog.

    As for Jaurim, when I cover their releases here it’s usually because of the rock factor rather than from any sense of being “indie”.

    I don’t usually spend much time thinking about what is indie and what isn’t – usually just writing about as much as I can find time for about whatever artists interest me personally (the times when I could even attempt to write about everything are long gone and even with the current approach there’s just too much to cover). When I do think about it, the first question that pops up in my head is “Is this the kind of band that would play in Hongdae?”, only after that do I consider sound and management.

    That said I did consider adding Jaurim to the list, but giving it an extra thought my reason for beginning to compile this chart to begin with was the surprise factor and given their status I personally was not particularly surprised to see Jaurim on there. Your comment made me rethink this again and since Jaurim are with Soundholic I think I made a wrong decision on this one. Updating right now!

    Sorry about the long answer, by the way. Please don’t let that keep you from asking similar questions further on ^^

    Oh, and while I was not surprised that Jaurim was on the chart I was surprised to see their songs there at this time, so my own surprise argument didn’t hold up very well anyway. Many thanks for the comment!

    You and Me is just now getting the kind of airplay it has so long deserved? Good on them! That song is the only Jaurim song I have ever played hours on end on repeat. It has a wonderfully cryptic vibe.
