Placing at No.3 on the singles chart was “KNOCK OUT,” another title track to GD&T.O.P’s first album which jumped eight steps from the previous week. “KNOCK OUT” is a hip-hop number which has the two singers describing their busy lifestyle chased by their schedules and scandals.

Third place was taken by “Secret Garden Soundtrack Part 4” which newly entered the chart.
