Lee Ji-eun scored her second consecutive win on KBS' Friday music show "Music Bank" with "Nagging", a collaboration with 2AM member Lim Seulong. This week however, Lee Ji-eun performed the song with male solo artist Seo In-guk.

"Nagging" has been faring well on various web-based music charts since its release June 2, and also took the top prize on SBS' "Inkigayo" the last week of June.

Meanwhile, CNBLUE scored their second Mutizen award on "Inkigayo" with their latest single "LOVE", beating out Lee Ji-eun and Lim Seulong's "Nagging", "Magic Girl" by girl group Orange Caramel and MBLAQ's "Y".

"LOVE" had taken its first win on the show for the week of June 20 before lending the top spot to "Nagging".

Jung Yong-hwa, the leader of CNBLUE, said in his group's acceptance speech, "We didn't think we would win. We would like to sincerely thank our agency, family and fans".

CNBLUE released two singles in Japan before breaking into the local music scene with their mini-album titled "Bluetory". "LOVE" is the title track from their second mini-album "BLUE LOVE".
