The Circle Album Chart, previously known as the Gaon Album Chart, is a record chart ranking the 100 most popular albums, extended plays and single albums in South Korea–based on their physical sales. It is a part of the Circle Chart, previously known as the Gaon Chart. It compiles shipments in weekly, monthly, and year-end formats with detailed album sales.[1]

History

The Gaon Album Chart was launched as a part of the Gaon Chart in February 2010 by the Korea Music Content Association and South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.[2]

In February 2011, Gaon Chart published information on both online and offline album sales of 2010, including a detailed breakdown of online chart data, and was the first time that offline album sales were released since 2008 when the Music Industry Association of Korea stopped compiling data.[3]

In July 2022, Gaon Chart was rebranded as Circle Chart with a reformation in the album chart that would also provide weekly physical album sales data in addition to monthly and yearly sales data.[1]
