What do triple crown, multi-crown and sweep mean?

A triple crown is a song winning the same show three times (usually three weeks in a row); most shows then retire the song from nomination.

On gayo.wiki, “n crowns” is a song's total #1s across all six shows, and a “sweep” is winning on five or more of the six. Songs that have swept: “After Like” (Ive), “Boy with Luv” (BTS), “Rough” (GFriend), “Navillera” (GFriend), “Nxde” ((G)I-dle), “Queencard” ((G)I-dle), “Knock Knock” (Twice), “Dance the Night Away” (Twice).

The most-awarded single song is “Dynamite” by BTS with 10 wins. Full tables are on the Records page.

The figures come from 2,590 music show wins gayo.wiki has compiled since 2012 across six shows (The Show, Show Champion, M Countdown, Music Bank, Show! Music Core, Inkigayo) and from Circle Chart, Apple Music, TJ, KY and official YouTube data recollected daily at 05:35 KST. Last refreshed 2026-09-26.

Commentary

A triple crown means one song winning the same show three times. Most shows then remove that song from nomination, so a song usually collects at most 3 wins on any one show.

On gayo.wiki, "crowns" count a song's wins across all 6 shows, and a "sweep" means winning on 5 or more of the 6. Since 2012 the most-awarded single song is "Dynamite" by BTS with 10 wins. Each song page lists its win dates by show, and the list of songs that swept 5 or more shows is on the Records page.
