"Chi Mat Ba Ram" (Korean: 치맛바람; lit. Swish of a Skirt) is a song recorded by South Korean girl group Brave Girls for their fifth extended play Summer Queen (2021). It was released on June 17, 2021, by Brave Entertainment as the album's lead single. An English version of the song was also included in the extended play.

Upon release, the song peaked at number three on South Korea's Gaon Digital Chart and number two on the Billboard K-pop Hot 100, becoming the group's third top-five hit on both charts. The music video for the track was released on June 17, and shows the group having fun in a beach-side resort.

Background and composition

In March 2021, Brave Girls rose to prominence with the sleeper hit "Rollin'", which became the group's first number one hit in South Korea. Three months later, the group announced the release of a new EP Summer Queen, their first album in four years. "Chi Mat Ba Ram" was revealed as the album's lead single.[1][2] Written by Brave Brothers, the song is a tropical house and dance number with an upbeat sound.[3][4][5] The song's title "Chi Mat Ba Ram" literally translates to "the swish of a skirt" in Korean and has been derived from the words "chima" and "baram".[3][6] Although the term is often used negatively, the song is lyrically about the "fierceness in women".[3] "Chi Mat Ba Ram" was released for digital download and streaming by Brave Entertainment on June 17, 2021, the same day as the album's release.[7][8]

Commercial performance

Upon release, the song debuted at number 14 on South Korea's Gaon Digital Chart for the chart issue dated June 19, 2021, with only two days of tracking.[9] Additionally, it debuted on the component Download and Streaming charts at number 2 and number 28 respectively.[10][11] The following week, it peaked at number three on the Digital, Download, and Streaming charts,[12][13][14] becoming the group's third top-five hit after "Rollin'" (2017) and "We Ride" (2020).[citation needed]

"Chi Mat Ba Ram" peaked at number two on the Billboard K-pop Hot 100 on the issue dated July 3, 2021,[15] becoming their third song to reach the top five and their highest-charting song since "Rollin'".[citation needed]
