As of January 2025, the song "Ditto" by girl group NewJeans has reached a record-breaking 655 perfect all-kills (PAKs) on South Korean music charts. PAKs are achieved by songs that remain at number one on all major Korean music charts providing real-time data (iChart, Melon, YouTube Music, Genie, Flo, Naver VIBE, and Bugs!) simultaneously. One hour of doing so counts as one PAK, meaning 655 PAKs equals to 655 hours of the same song dominating all major charts at the same time. While PAK achievements are not an officially recognized metric within the industry, they tend to be used among fans as a measure of the combined popularity among fans and the general public.
