Notably, Le Sserafim becomes the sixth K-pop girl group to make their mark on the Hot 100, joining the ranks of Wonder Girls, Blackpink, Twice, NewJeans, and Fifty Fifty. The success of "Easy" can be attributed to its rap-infused style, complemented by groovy R&B vocals and melody. The track was produced with the involvement of Bang Si-hyuk, the chair of the K-pop powerhouse Hybe.

In addition to their Hot 100 debut, Le Sserafim has secured the 8th position on the Billboard 200 chart with the EP "Easy." Impressively, this marks the group's third consecutive album to rank among the top 200 most consumed albums in the US. Their debut LP, "Unforgiven," released on May 1, 2023, claimed the 6th position, while the second EP, "Antifragile," released on Oct. 17, 2022, secured the 14th spot. The consistent success of Le Sserafim highlights their growing influence and popularity in the global music scene.
