WOODZ Sets Record On Melon Chart For Longest Run In Top 10

WOODZ (Cho Seung Youn) continues his record-breaking run on Melon’s Top 100!

Last week, WOODZ’s beloved hit “Drowning” reached an impressive milestone on the main chart for Melon, Korea’s largest music streaming service. “Drowning” became the first song ever to spend 70 consecutive weeks in the top 10 of Melon’s Top 100 chart.

As of May 19, “Drowning” has extended that record by spending 71 consecutive weeks in the top 10.

Originally released as a B-side in 2023, “Drowning” went viral in October 2024 after WOODZ performed the song during an “Immortal Songs” Armed Forces Day special while serving in the military. The song’s sudden surge in popularity propelled it to the top of the Korean music charts, and it ultimately ranked No. 1 on the 2025 year-end charts for Melon, Genie, and Circle Chart. The hit song also belatedly earned WOODZ his first music show win on a public broadcast network, claiming two separate wins on SBS’s “Inkigayo.”

Before “Drowning,” the previous records for the most consecutive weeks in the top 10 of Melon’s Top 100 belonged to NewJeans’ “Hype Boy” (49 weeks) and BTS’s “Dynamite” (36 weeks).

Congratulations to WOODZ!

“The Scarecrow” Breaks ENA Ratings Record As “Yumi’s Cells 3” Ends On Highest Ratings Of Its Run

Just six episodes into its run, ENA’s “The Scarecrow” has already made network history!

On May 5, “The Scarecrow” climbed to its highest viewership ratings yet, continuing its perfect streak of seeing its ratings rise with each new episode. According to Nielsen Korea, the latest episode of the mystery thriller took first place in its time slot across all channels with an average nationwide rating of 7.41 percent.

Not only was “The Scarecrow” the most-watched show to air on any cable network on Tuesday, but it has now broken the record for the highest viewership ratings ever achieved by an ENA Monday-Tuesday drama.

Notably, the previous record was set by the series finale of the hit drama “Ms. Incognito,” which ended on an average nationwide rating of 7.1 percent last year—and which “The Scarecrow” managed to overtake in only six episodes. With “The Scarecrow” already gaining steam at an impressive rate, it remains to be seen just how much higher its record will rise in the weeks to come.

Meanwhile, tvN’s “Yumi’s Cells 3” ended on the highest ratings of its entire run. The finale scored an average nationwide rating of 2.5 percent, marking a new personal record for the drama.

Congratulations to the casts and crews of both shows!
