The Circle Chart (Korean: 써클차트; RR: Sseokeul-chateu), previously known as the Gaon Music Chart or the Gaon Chart (Korean: 가온차트; RR: Gaon-chateu), tabulates the relative weekly popularity of songs and albums in South Korea. Founded in 2010, it is produced by the Korea Music Content Association and sponsored by South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

History

Gaon Chart was launched in February 2010 by the Korea Music Content Association, under the sponsorship of the South Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, with the aim to create a domestic national chart similar to the Billboard charts of the United States and the Oricon charts of Japan. The word gaon, which means "middle" or "center" in Korean, was chosen to represent fairness and reliability. The chart started tracking sales from the beginning of that year.^[1] A small awards ceremony was held in conjunction with the launch ceremony on February 23, at the Westin Chosun hotel in Seoul. Girl group Girls' Generation was awarded the Top Artist of January, boy band Super Junior won Best Album of 2009, and Jo Kwon and Ga-in's "We Fell In Love" won Best Weekly Mobile Ringtone.^[2]

In February 2011, Gaon published online and offline album sales information for 2010, including a detailed breakdown of online chart data. This was the first time that offline album sales had been released since 2008 when the Music Industry Association of Korea stopped compiling data.^[3]

On July 7, 2022, the Gaon Chart was rebranded as Circle Chart. A new Global K-pop Chart was introduced alongside the retention of existing charts. The Gaon Chart Music Awards were also rebranded to the Circle Chart Awards.^[4]

-The '''Gaon Album Chart''' ranks physical album shipments, including mini and single albums. It is compiled from offline data provided by record labels and distributors such as [[Kakao Entertainment]], [[Stone Music Entertainment]], [[Genie Music]], [[Sony Music|Sony Music Korea]], [[Pony Canyon|Pony Canyon Korea]], [[Universal Music Group|Universal Music Korea]], and [[Warner Music Group|Warner Music Korea]].
-The '''Gaon Digital Chart''' ranks best-selling non-physical, digital music sales, and is an aggregate of downloads, streaming and background music. It excludes radio airplay, and different versions of a song are listed as separate entries. It is compiled from online data provided by web-based music providers such as [[Genie Music#Assets|Genie]], [[melon (online music service)|Melon]], [[Dreamus|FLO]], [[Soribada]], [[Naver|Naver Music]], [[Kakao|KakaoMusic]] and [[NHN Entertainment|Bugs]]. There is no digital album chart because each song is a separate digital download.
-All charts rank the top 100. Before mid-2014 and 2018 until now, the digital, streaming, download, and noraebang charts ranked the top 200.
