In the dynamic world of K-pop, the competition is fierce, and chart-topping success is a testament to an artist's talent, hard work, and immense fan support. One of the most coveted accomplishments for a K-pop song is achieving a "Perfect All-Kill" (PAK), which happens when a track simultaneously tops all major South Korean music charts on the real-time, daily, and weekly categories.
