Dara, the ultimate endorser!
With the year coming to an end, many are left wondering: which artists and songs seized the music market in 2011?
Music site Monkey3 has released their Top 40 rankings for 2011, which were compiled by combining the Top 50 weekly charts from January 1st to November 30th, as well as statistics from music streams and downloads. The results showed that this year, T-ara‘s ‘Roly-Poly‘ received the most love.
2011 demonstrated that the power of girl groups was as strong as ever, but there were a few surprising entries from songs performed on survival audition programs like Mnet‘s ‘Superstar K3‘ and MBC‘s ‘I Am a Singer‘.
Check out the lists below!
