Actor Hyun Bin’s song from popular TV drama “Secret Garden” took first place on Gaon's weekly singles chart during the week of January 9 to 15. According to figures unveiled on Thursday, Hyun Bin’s ballad “That Man” from SBS hit series “Secret Garden” climbed up five steps from the previous week to claim the No.1 spot.“Secret Garden,” a romantic fantasy starring Hyun Bin and Ha Ji-won which tells about two people in love switching souls, finished its run last weekend after scoring a viewership rating of 31.5 percent on its finale episode on Sunday, according to data by Total National Multimedia Research (TNmS). The No.2 spot was taken by "Shy boy," a new dance number by four-member idol group Secret, that shot up 16 steps from the previous week. The song from the girl group’s first single album of the same name, is a cheerful love song whose melody is based on swing and other American retro-style music from the 1960s. Teenage idol singer IU’s “Someday” too went up five steps to reach the No.3 spot. “Someday,” a ballad from the original soundtrack of KBS series “Dream High,” sings of one's strength to go on to achieve your dream someday. The song is in line with the story of the drama about six talented teenagers -- IU being one of them -- working hard to make a stage debut. In the albums chart, the special edition of TVXQ’s album “Why (Keep Your Head Down)” maintained its position at first for the second consecutive week. “Why (Keep Your Head Down)” is TVXQ’s first album in over two years following the band's legal dispute that downsized TVXQ’s team from five members to the current two.Coming in on second place was boy band MBLAQ’s first album “BLAQ Style” that features the double title tracks “Stay” and “Cry.”Landing in third was Girls’ Generation's special album “1st ASIA TOUR CONCERT - Into The New World” that features the nine-member group’s live concert held last year in the format of two albums and a total 38 songs, plus two bonus tracks. ※ Any copying, republication or redistribution of 10Asia's content is expressly prohibited without prior consent of 10Asia.
