BLACKPINK's Jisoo has claimed the number one spot with her solo comeback on Mnet's "M! Countdown" broadcast on April 13 (KST).

Jisoo's new song "Flower" and BTS's Jimin's "Like Crazy" were both contenders for the top spot in the second week of April. Ultimately, Jisoo emerged as the winner.

IVE made their first music show appearance after their comeback, unveiling their new album "I've IVE" for the first time on television. Member Lei, however, was absent due to health issues, and the group performed as a quintet.

Solo artists like Park Ji-hoon and Lee Chae-yeon also delivered memorable performances. Park Ji-hoon made his comeback after six months, performing his new song "Blank Effect." Lee Chae-yeon presented her new track "KNOCK" on 'M! Countdown' as well.
