Yuqi named Tencent Music's Women of the Year 2026 as 'Radio (Dum-Dum)' logs 52 weeks in top 10
Yuqi earned Tencent Music Gold certification and the platform's first-half most popular song title for 'Radio (Dum-Dum)'.
Tencent Music crowns Yuqi for 2026
Yuqi (Song Woo-gi) has been named one of Tencent Music Entertainment's Women of the Year in Music 2026 — recognition from China's largest music platform that lands alongside a string of chart records she's been stacking there all year.
Radio (Dum-Dum) spent 52 consecutive weeks in the top 10 on Tencent Music's Korea chart. The 2024 digital single earned Gold certification from the platform and the title of most popular song of the first half of the year. Most acts don't see a run like that on their home turf, let alone abroad.
She marked the moment on September 6 with an Instagram post captioned "Me with Mo&Co.", photographed in an all-black look.
Solo catalog and group momentum
Yuqi's solo output since 2021:
- A Page (digital single, 2021)
- YUQ1 (mini album, 2024)
- Could It Be and Radio (Dum-Dum) (digital singles, 2024)
- FENDI (single, 2025)
On the (G)I-DLE side, the group's digital single Mono (Feat. skaiwater) took first place on music broadcasts three times. The group — Miyeon, Minnie, Yuqi, Shuhua, and Soyon — has been running the 2026 i-dle World Tour [Syncopation], with stops in Seoul, Taipei, Bangkok, and Macau. North American arena dates and a Chicago Lollapalooza appearance are on the schedule as the group pushes further into Western markets.
Yuqi serves as (G)I-DLE's main dancer and sub-vocalist. Her official fanclub is Neverland; she calls fans Beoya (버야). Fifty-two weeks on a chart is a long time to stay relevant anywhere. The Tencent Music recognition shows just how deep her solo presence runs in China.
