Hanteo Chart officially requests investigation on Momoland's sajaegi (chart manipulation) accusations

Momoland

Hanteo Chart is officially taking action in response to the ongoing sajaegi accusations on Momoland.


Earlier this month, Momoland was accused of sajaegi as the sales of the album 'Great!' tremendously soared up in a short amount of time. Duble Kick Entertainment strongly denied the accusations, however, rumors continued to spread. 


To settle the issue, Hanteo Chart decided to officially submit a request for an investigation to the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism. 


A rep of Hanteo Chart told CBS No Cut News, "We have decided to take such action because we were unable to find a clear explanation of the sales controversy and believed this can cause harm to the reliability of Hanteo Charts."


Hanteo Chart is scheduled to submit the request on February 26. Stay tuned for updates.
