The Morning Calm Post

I.O.I took No. 1 on SBS "Inkigayo"(The Music Trend) for a second consecutive week with its 10th-anniversary project song "Suddenly." RESCENE rose to No. 2 with "LOVE ATTACK," showing how recent online attention and music-platform response are carrying over into music show rankings.

I.O.I continues to show its presence on music show rankings even after the end of its official activities. On the SBS music program "Inkigayo," broadcast on July 19, 2026 KST, I.O.I's "Suddenly" took first place with a total score of 4,856 points. The No. 1 candidates that day were I.O.I's "Suddenly," aespa's "LEMONADE" and RESCENE's "LOVE ATTACK."

According to the scores shown that day, I.O.I received 4,206 points from online music, 293 from real-time voting, 215 from on-air score, 99 from SNS, 42 from viewer pre-voting and 1 from album sales, for a total of 4,856 points. RESCENE placed second with 4,731 points, while aespa placed third with 4,391 points. The gap between I.O.I and RESCENE was 125 points.

I.O.I's latest result carries meaning beyond a simple weekly win. According to the selected articles, "Suddenly" is the title track of "I.O.I: LOOP," the third mini album released by I.O.I after reuniting for the 10th anniversary of the group formed through Mnet's "Produce 101" in 2016. The official project activities have already concluded, but the song's response is continuing on music show rankings.

"Suddenly" had also taken No. 1 on SBS "Inkigayo"(The Music Trend) the previous week. With this result, I.O.I recorded two consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the same program. Other reports said that including three wins on MBC's "Show! Music Core," "Suddenly" has reached five music show wins. The fact that the ranking has held after the activity period ended can be read as a sign that the 10th-anniversary project did not remain only a one-time nostalgia event.

RESCENE's No. 2 finish is also worth noting. "LOVE ATTACK" has been introduced as a song that is recently receiving renewed attention through online content. An Ilgan Sports report said RESCENE drew attention through the YouTube channel "Hello, I'm Wonhee, Nice to Meet You" with topics including "Geoje girl" and "gyaru character," and that related video views exceeded 10 million. As this attention carried over into music chart response, "LOVE ATTACK" reached No. 1 on Melon Top 100 before climbing to No. 2 on "Inkigayo."

This flow again shows that recent K-pop music show results are not determined only by concentrated fandom activity immediately after a comeback. In a structure where digital performance, SNS response, broadcast score and real-time voting are reflected together, rankings can move again even after time has passed if a song gains online attention and public contact points. RESCENE's case connects with the recent pattern in which short-form video content and character-driven attention lead to music consumption.

aespa's "LEMONADE" also continued its long-running response by placing third. The song has remained in the ranking conversation across multiple weeks since its release on May 29, 2026 KST. This No. 1 candidate lineup can be summarized as a moment where I.O.I's 10th-anniversary project, RESCENE's reverse-chart run and aespa's long-term performance met on one screen.

A music show No. 1 is one indicator of a song's current position. However, a ranking result alone cannot define the full outcome of an activity. In I.O.I's case, it confirmed that fandom and public response are continuing after the project activity ended, while RESCENE showed how online attention can expand into music charts and broadcast rankings. The two cases met in the same music show ranking competition from different starting points, leaving one snapshot of how the K-pop chart moved in summer 2026.
