all-kill
What does all-kill mean?
When a song simultaneously tops all eight major Korean real-time music charts (Melon, Genie, Bugs, FLO, Vibe, etc.) plus the daily and weekly charts. A 'Perfect All-Kill' (PAK) is the holy grail — number one on every chart at the same moment. It's the K-pop equivalent of clean-sweeping the Grammys in real-time.
"They got a Perfect All-Kill within twelve hours of release, the fandom went feral."
Origin
Coined by iChart (Instiz), the Korean aggregator that tracks chart performance across all major streaming platforms.
