GIRL'S DAY's FIRST WIN!
Girl group Girl’s Day has won their first #1 since debut.
On the privately-held July 7th episode of Inkigayo, Girl’s Day beat out Sistar and Lee Seungchul to win first place with their new song “Female President”.
Their digital music points, SNS points, and viewer voting points added up to a total of 8887 points. Inkigayo was cancelled due to the Asiana airplane landing accident, so real-time voting points were unable to be tallied, but even with putting in 0 points for that statistic, Girl’s Day surpassed Sistar and Lee Seungchul to seal their first place victory.
Prior to this, Girl’s Day gained popularity with songs such as “Twinkle Twinkle” and “Expectation”, but sadly, they were unable to reach #1. On the July 6th episode of MBC’s Show! Music Core, they were a contender for first place with the song “Female President”, but Roy Kim’s “Love Love Love” ended up winning and Girl’s Day were unfortunately relegated to second place. Therefore, they won their first #1 since debuting in 2010 through this week’s Inkigayo.
In a July 8th phone call, Inkigayo PD Kim Yongkwon told mydaily: “The members of Girl’s Day were very happy to hear the news that they had won first place. We will deliver their trophy to them at a later date.”
He also let us know what happened behind the scenes: “The members might have been disappointed that they won #1 on a cancelled episode, but they showed a considerate side and commented, “There are unfortunate circumstances too, so we can’t just smile and receive the award.” I thought that their view on the situation was deep and belied their young ages.”
