South Korean girl group NewJeans has emerged as a shining beacon of success. Consisting of Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein, NewJeans is not just a music sensation but a cultural phenomenon that has taken the global music industry by storm. NewJeans, formed by ADOR, has crafted a unique niche for themselves, blending the charm of the girl next door image with the nostalgia of 1990s and 2000s pop and R&B. Their music incorporates various dance and club styles, making them a force to be reckoned with in the competitive K-pop industry.
Just two months ago, NewJeans etched their names in the annals of music history by accomplishing a feat that set the industry abuzz. Their second mini album, “Get Up,” soared to the top of the Billboard 200 chart, marking them as the fastest female K-pop act to debut at No. 1 — an achievement that speaks volumes about their immense popularity. What’s even more remarkable is that “Get Up” has maintained its stronghold on the chart, resting comfortably within the top 60 for an impressive 10 consecutive weeks, a milestone previously unattained by any female K-pop artist.
NewJeans’ dominance doesn’t stop there; their hit single “Super Shy” climbed to No. 37 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart within just four weeks, proving its infectious melody and irresistible charm. At the same time, “Get Up” secured its position at No. 1 on Billboard’s World Albums chart for an astounding nine non-consecutive weeks, making it the first K-pop girl group album to achieve such a feat.
Their remarkable journey on the Billboard charts not only showcases their musical prowess but also shows the universal appeal of K-pop as a genre. Listen to their chart-topping album below:
