K-pop sensation NewJeans has reached new heights with their latest single, "Super Shy," as it soared to No. 64 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in the week dated July 29. This achievement marks the group's highest ranking on the prestigious chart to date, according to Billboard's announcement on Wednesday.

Just a week prior, "Super Shy" made an impressive debut at No. 66 on the same chart, reflecting the song's rapid ascent in popularity among global music audiences. NewJeans' previous hit songs, "OMG" and "Ditto," also made notable appearances on Billboard's Hot 100 at No. 74 and No. 82, respectively.

The success of "Super Shy" was foreshadowed by data from Spotify, the world's largest streaming platform, where the song surged from No. 37 to an impressive No. 9 on its Daily Top Song chart, dated July 13.

Billboard's Hot 100 chart ranks the most popular weekly songs based on streaming data provided by leading online music services, including Spotify. In addition to its remarkable achievement on the Hot 100, "Super Shy" continued to shine on Billboard's Global Excl. US chart at No. 3 and the Global 200 chart at No. 5, further solidifying NewJeans' global appeal.

Amid the triumph of their latest single, all eyes are now on whether NewJeans can secure a debut on Billboard's highly-coveted 200 chart with their latest album. The group has already sold an impressive 1.24 million copies within just five days of its release, igniting anticipation for their potential historic feat. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the week's most popular music albums in the US, compiled by Luminate.

If NewJeans achieves this milestone, they will become the first K-pop group to make it onto both of Billboard's main charts in the shortest amount of time since their debut. The achievement would further solidify NewJeans' position as a trailblazing force in the world of K-pop, captivating hearts and breaking barriers in the global music industry.
