Belift Lab, the agency representing the K-pop girl group Illit, announced on Monday that the group's debut EP, "Super Real Me," has broken the first-week sales record for a debut album from a K-pop girl group. The EP sold over 380,000 copies in its inaugural week, surpassing the previous record held by NewJeans, which sold 311,000 copies.
Illit's lead single, "Magnetic," fronting the mini album, achieved notable success on various platforms. It debuted on Spotify's daily top songs global chart on the day of its release, marking a significant milestone as the first K-pop female group to achieve this feat.
Additionally, "Magnetic" secured the No. 190 spot on Spotify's weekly top songs global chart, entering the chart in the shortest time for a K-pop band.
In the domestic market, the lead single quickly gained traction, entering Melon's top 100 the day after its release and subsequently making its way into the top 10 on all major charts.
