The M Countdown Chart is a record chart on the South Korean Mnet television music program M Countdown. Every week, the show awards the best-performing single on the chart in the country during its live broadcast.
In 2017, 31 singles ranked number one on the chart and 23 music acts were awarded first-place trophies. Four songs collected trophies for three weeks and achieved a triple crown: "Fxxk It" by Big Bang, "Yes I Am" by Mamamoo, "Ko Ko Bop" by Exo, and "Energetic" by Wanna One. Of all releases for the year, only two songs earned a perfect score of 11,000 points: "Power" by Exo and "DNA" by BTS.
Scoring system
Songs were judged based on a combination of digital music sales (50%), album sales (15%), social media performance (official YouTube music video views and SNS buzz: 15%), popularity (global fan votes and age range preference) (10%), Mnet's broadcast score (10%), and SMS voting (10%).
Chart history
Sub-unit acts NCT 127 (top) and NU'EST W (bottom) both achieved their first ever music show win with "Cherry Bomb" on episode 529 and "Where You At" on episode 545 respectively. Seohyun (top) and Sunmi (bottom) each received their first M Countdown trophy as soloists for "Don't Say No" on episode 508 and "Gashina" on episode 540 respectively.
