Twice topped Favorite’s weekly chart for the second week of April.

Favorite is a K-pop fan poll co-developed by digital streaming service Bugs and the JoongAng Ilbo, an affiliate of the Korea JoongAng Daily.

Weekly chart rankings are calculated through a combination of fan votes and an artist’s number of streams on Bugs.

Twice received a score of 40.5 percent, accounting for a whopping 25,940,321 votes and 1.2 percent of Bugs’ streaming data. Boy band DAY6 landed in second place with 45.3 percent, which accounted for 18,882,283 votes and 12.3 percent of Bugs’ streaming data.
BTS followed in third place with 2.1 percent and 92,416 votes.

Twice will be awarded with a celebratory in-app banner, which will be seen on the Bugs phone app from April 19, while DAY6’s celebratory banner will be found on the charts category of the app.

Twice’s Dahyun ranked No. 1 on Favorite’s May Birthday poll with a score of 87.1 percent, accounting for 719,484 votes. Virtual boy band Plave’s Eunho landed in second with a score of 8.1 percent.
