SHINee and Sistar 19 fiercely fight for first place

 

SHINee and Sistar 19 are currently fighting for first place on the charts.

 

As of February 20, SHINee and Sistar 19 are both topping the charts with “Dream Girl” and “Here Then Gone” respectively. Sistar 19 are number one on Melon, Mnet, and Olleh Music, and SHINee are number one on Soribada, Naver Music, and Daum Music.

 

SHINee topped the charts immediately after they released “Dream Girl,” the lead track of the third album, on February 19. As they’re a contemporary group that follows today’s trend in music, dance, and fashion, their new song is also very young and experimental.

 

“Dream Girl” shows SHINee’s distinctive musical style and creativity. It’s an electronic punk number, which sounds groovy yet beautiful. It was composed by the team led by Shin Hyuk, who produced Justin Bieber’s album.

 

Sistar 19 are also doing well. They have topped the charts with “Here Then Gone” since January 31 when the song was released. With the sad hip-hop song and the members’ sexy choreography are making strong impression on many people.

 

SHINee will perform the song on Mnet’s M Countdown on February 21, on MBC TV’s Show! Music Core on 23, and on SBS TV’s Inkigayo on 24.
