Korean rapper MC Mong has climbed to the No. 1 spot on Gaon's singles chart with his latest song "Hurts Like Death" featuring female singer Mellow.

According to data released by Gaon on Thursday, he took the title of best-selling single during the week of June 27 to July 3, pushing three-week winner IU and Seulong down the chart.


The latest collaboration is a track featured in album "Blue Brand; Trauma" which includes various tracks from different recording artists. "Hurts Like Death" has fared well on other web-based music charts as well since its release on June 24.

"Nagging," a duet by songstress IU and 2AM member Seulong dropped one slot to No. 2 and the latest single "The Day I Confessed My Love" by 2AM leader Jo Kwon made its debut in third place.

Meanwhile, boy band Super Junior's repackaged fourth album "BONAMANA" bowed into the top spot on the albums chart, scoring its first win for the first week of July.

"Solar," the first studio release by Big Bang member Taeyang, bowed into second place and reentering the top 3 was veteran singer Lee Seung-chul's special "25th Anniversary" record.
