Melon TOP100 on October 22, 2026: Four Songs to Try

For a short route into Melon’s October 22, 2026 TOP100, try “NEON,” SOYEON’s “퇴사할게여,” RESCENE’s “LOVE ATTACK” and ILLIT’s “It’s Me.” They offer four starting points from one dated chart: a recent debut, a solo release, an older catalogue track and an ILLIT single.

Chart snapshot: October 22, 2026, 18:00 KST (09:00 UTC), as displayed on Melon TOP100. These positions belong to that hour; they are not a weekly result or a claim about the ranking after that hour.

Four selections from the same TOP100 hour

The positions below were checked together on Melon’s official TOP100 page. This is a selected listening route, not a reproduction of the complete top 16. A live chart link can show a different hour when you open it.

Melon TOP100 — October 22, 2026, 18:00 KST

Position	Track	Artist credit	Recording released
1	NEON	A2O, A2O LITE	October 13, 2026
2	퇴사할게여 (Narr. 기안84)	SOYEON	September 7, 2026
4	LOVE ATTACK	RESCENE	August 27, 2024
16	It’s Me	ILLIT	April 30, 2026

1. A2O LITE — “NEON”: start with the act, then the label

Melon’s “NEON” recording page lists both A2O and A2O LITE in the artist credit and classifies the October 13 single as dance. That double credit can be confusing on a first visit: A2O is the company name, while LITE is the group to look for in the official video.

Begin with the complete A2O WORLD video below rather than trying to learn every member from a short clip. If the group catches your attention, our A2O LITE introduction separates the members, the debut and Lee Soo-man’s producer role. The chart position gives you a starting track; the artist guide helps you decide where to go next.

2. SOYEON — “퇴사할게여”: a solo entry with a different credit line

The Korean word toesa (퇴사) refers to leaving a job. The title’s workplace language is one useful doorway for an English-speaking listener; the parenthetical credit names narration by Kian84. Melon’s recording information dates this solo release to September 7 and places it in rock/metal.

Use the official full music video to meet this particular solo release before treating it as interchangeable with an i-dle group track. You do not need to understand every Korean line on the first pass. Check the official player’s caption options for your language, and let the complete presentation provide more context than a chart title alone.

3. RESCENE — “LOVE ATTACK”: a 2024 song in a 2026 snapshot

This is the selection to try if you want to explore beyond the newest release date. Melon’s official song page places “LOVE ATTACK” on SCENEDROME, released August 27, 2024. Its position here does not turn it into a 2026 single.

Start with RESCENE’s original official MV, dated 2024, and follow the group from there if the song stays with you. A chart can reopen a door to a catalogue you missed. This one snapshot does not establish why the track reached this position, so it should not be used as proof of a viral moment, a particular fan campaign or a new release.

4. ILLIT — “It’s Me”: match the title to the recording

Melon lists “It’s Me” on ILLIT’s MAMIHLAPINATAPAI, released April 30, 2026, in the dance category. The page lists both the main MV and a performance version. For the release’s original visual introduction, the HYBE LABELS official MV below is the first stop.

Choose a performance version afterward if you want to concentrate on the group’s movement. Keeping the versions in that order gives each a purpose: first meet the song through its full official video, then take a closer look at its stage presentation.

What this snapshot can help you choose

Play all four in the order above, or choose by your question: a new group to learn, a familiar artist’s solo release, an older song to discover, or an ILLIT single to revisit. Those are listening choices, not claims that one chart ranks everyone’s personal taste.

If your question is why a song appears on one Melon list but not another, read TOP100 vs HOT100: why the rankings differ. That explainer covers chart eligibility; this page preserves four selections at one specified hour.
