K-Pop Chart: Music Bank — October 23, 2026 Broadcast

Broadcast: October 23, 2026 · Chart tracking period: October 12–18, 2026

NCT WISH’s “I SPY” leads this week’s Music Bank K-Chart with 8,352 points, followed by SUNGHANBIN’s “UNDEAD” on 6,424 and PLAVE’s “Star Trace” on 4,087. Below is the full Top 50, paired with official KBS Kpop performances from the October 23 broadcast.

How to watch: Six chart songs were performed on this episode. Their videos appear in the matching rows. A dash means that no performance of that exact song appears in this episode’s stage list; it does not mean the artist was absent. Comeback, debut and other performances follow the chart.

Music Bank K-Chart: Top 50

KBS publishes point totals for ranks 1–20. Its ranks 21–50 list gives artists and songs without totals. Song titles are shown in English; descriptive English translations are used where an official English title has not been confirmed.

Comeback, Debut & More Stages

The broadcast also featured these 15 performances. IVE, NMIXX and KickFlip appear in the Top 50 with different songs, so their October 23 stages belong here rather than beside an unrelated chart entry. EVNNE, YUHZ, LEE HAN GYUL, A2O SOUL, MAX CHANGMIN and YS Block are included below as well. Every video is from the official KBS Kpop channel and is labeled “KBS 261023 방송.”

How the Music Bank K-Chart Is Calculated

This edition uses data collected from October 12 through October 18, 2026, rather than activity on the broadcast day alone. KBS combines five weighted components:

Component	Weight
Digital music	60%
Broadcast frequency	20%
K-POP fan voting	10%
Physical albums	5%
Social media	5%

KBS identifies the social-media component as YouTube data supplied by Circle Chart. The percentages are category weights, not percentages of each artist’s final total. After the data is converted into category points, the five point values are added to determine the ranking.

Why “I SPY” Finished First

Component	NCT WISH: I SPY	SUNGHANBIN: UNDEAD
Digital music	477	28
Broadcast	2,992	4,051
K-POP fan voting	538	2,000
Physical albums	4,312	343
Social media	33	2
Total	8,352	6,424

SUNGHANBIN scored more broadcast and fan-voting points, while NCT WISH’s stronger album score helped “I SPY” finish 1,928 points ahead overall. This is why the result cannot be read from YouTube views or fan votes alone. Chart placement and the broadcast lineup also answer different questions: an artist can perform a new song before it appears in that week’s Top 50.
