High Up Entertainment s very first girl group, STAYC, showed its potential to become one of the next big Korean acts after attaining the highest single album sales in 2020 on Hanteo Chart.
Hanteo Chart is the only music chart in Korea that sums up music and album sales in real-time. It uses its calculation system and data that it has gathered for around 25 years since it was launched. When compared to Gaon Chart, Hanteo Chart keeps track of sales while Gaon observes shipments.
Additionally, Hanteo is mostly used for weekly music shows in determining the winners for that particular week. Gaon Chart, on the other hand, is used for year-end award ceremonies.
