Scoring system

February 27, 2014–June 4, 2015

Songs that appeared on the show from January 1–June 4 were scored based on a combination of digital single sales (50%), album sales (10%), social media performance (official YouTube music video views and SNS buzz: 10%), preference points (global fan votes and age range preference: 10%), Mnet's broadcast score (10%), and SMS votes (10%), for a total of 11,000 points.

June 11, 2015–April 12, 2018

Mnet changed its scoring system effective the June 11 broadcast. Digital sales still accounted for 50% of a song's score, but points for album sales and social media performance were increased to 15% each. The popularity, broadcast, and voting percentages remained unchanged. No song achieved a perfect score under either system for the year.
