The Inkigayo Chart is a music program record chart that gives an award to the best-performing single of the week in South Korea. Up until February 1, 2015, the chart measured digital performance in domestic online music services (6,000 points), social media via YouTube views (3,500 points), and advanced viewer votes (500 points) in its ranking methodology. The candidates for the number-one song of the week received additional points from live votes (1,000 points). Beginning on February 8, Inkigayo implemented modifications for its measurements of digital performance (down to 5,500 points) and added album sales (500 points). Songs that spend three weeks at number one are awarded a Triple Crown and are removed from the chart and ineligible to win again. The show was hosted by five different people across the whole year. Hwang Kwang-hee, Kim Yoo-jung and Hong Jong-hyun had hosted the show together since December 28, 2014. Kwang-hee was replaced by Jackson Wang starting with the April 12 broadcast while Jong-hyun left the show on August 30. On September 13, Yook Sung-jae joined the show as a host alongside Yoo-jung and Wang.
In 2015, there were 34 singles that ranked number one on the chart and 23 music acts received award trophies for this feat. Boy group BigBang had four number one singles on the chart, the most of any act in 2015: "Loser", "Bang Bang Bang", "Sober" and "Let's Not Fall in Love". The latter achieved a perfect score of 11,000 points on the August 23 broadcast, making it the single with the highest points of the year.
