On Mnet’s “M Countdown,” which aired on the afternoon of January 13th, IVE and Kep1er competed for the No.1 spot. Kep1er‘s “WA DA DA DA” won in the second week of January after a tight match.

On this day, IVE and Kep1er competed fiercely for the first place with a total result of 6,046 points and 6,500 points. Kep1er’s digital sales score was recorded as “0 points” as the group is a rookie who debuted on January 3rd. However, it proudly topped the list by beating IVE with overwhelming scores in record sales, global fan votes, social media scores, and Mnet broadcasting scores.
