IU's "Love Wins All" breaks into the top 10 all-time for most hourly PAKs (perfect all kills)

AKP STAFF

IU's latest chart-topping single, "Love Wins All," has made an impressive entry into the elite league of songs (top 10) with the most hourly Perfect All-Kills (PAKs). Currently, the track has achieved a remarkable 187 hours of PAK status, with the count still ongoing. 


This achievement signifies the song's overwhelming popularity, as a PAK is awarded when a song consistently ranks first on the daily and real-time charts of all major South Korean music streaming platforms, including Melon, Genie, Bugs, FLO, VIBE, and YouTube Music. Additionally, to secure a PAK, the song must simultaneously top the real-time and weekly charts on Instiz's iChart, thereby dominating every significant music ranking in South Korea.

"Love Wins All" is approaching the 9th spot for the most hourly PAKs, a position currently held by SSAK3's "Beach Again" with 208 hours. Achieving this would mark another milestone in IU's illustrious career. IU currently has 22 songs that achieved a PAK, by far the most in history; in second place is BIGBANG, with 7 songs, while there is a three-way tie for third with BTS, TWICE, and IVE, each having 4 songs achieving a PAK respectively.

To put this achievement into perspective, here's a look at the top 10 songs with the most hourly PAKs of all-time:

1. NewJeans - "Ditto" - 655 hours (2023)

2. BTS - "Dynamite" - 610 hours (2020)

3. IU - "Celebrity" - 462 hours (2021)

4. IVE - "I AM" - 359 hours (2023)

5. Zico - "Any Song" - 330 hours (2020)

6. Brave Girls - "Rollin'" - 262 hours (2017)

7. BTS - "Butter" - 239 hours (2021)

8. IU - "Lilac" - 223 hours (2021)

9. SSAK3 - "Beach Again" - 208 hours (2020)

10. IU - "Love Wins All" - 187 hours (and counting) (2024)

Meanwhile, IU is slated to release her EP 'The Winning' on February 20, 2024.

Absolutely deserved! The song is wonderful, the MV is amazing. IU and V did well.

Both seriously need to star in a drama together.
