The timeline in consideration for each article will be the span of 7 days, from Fridays to Thursdays. The Weekly Ranker article will be published every Friday. In the case of this article, we will look at releases from 9th September 2022 to 15th September 2022. Note: This ranker will not be based solely on the commercial success or popularity of the releases. However, we will open a poll at the end of each article where you can vote for the best release of the week. The best releases from each week will be compiled in a monthly article based only on your votes. Here are the top 5 K-Pop releases from the 2nd week of September!
1. GOT7’s Jackson Wang - ‘Blue’
‘Blue’ is a dreamy, meditative masterpiece that shines the spotlight on Jackson’s brilliant musicality. The primary motif of the music video is falling endlessly, but rather than anxiety, it evokes calmness, and so does the song. This is Jackson Wang in his element, and needless to say, ‘Blue’ deserves the top spot.
