RESULTS: 2005 SOOMPI GAYO DAESANG AWARD SHOW

2005 YEAR END TOP 20: These are the 20 songs that accumulated the highest total chart scores on our weekly top 20 chart, adjusted for the following factors:

1. Positional factor: To reward songs that rank higher in the chart, I assign a weight for each song each week. The No. 1 song of the week gets a weight of 1.00, or 20/20, the No. 2 song gets a weight of 0.95, or 19/20, and so on. The No. 20 song gets 0.05, or 1/20.
2. Competition factor: I added up the total chart scores of all 20 songs each week, and then sum the grand total for the year, divided by the number of weeks (51, because this week is the year end countdown). That arrives a mean score (average) for the year. Any weeks with a total score higher than average means that songs appear on those weeks are facing strong competition, and thus are awarded a higher score bu the percentage that it exceeds the average score of the year.
3. Seasonal factor: Traditionally, most big albums are released later in the year to have better chance for year end awards. I apply a seasonal factor to each month: January (0.88), February (0.90), March (0.92), April (0.94), May (0.96), June (0.98), July (1.00), August (1.02), September (1.04), October (1.06), November (1.08), December (1.10). Songs releasing later in the year will have more advantage.

Also, remakes and covered versions will be excluded from the consideration of the year end top 20.
