In a whirlwind journey that began just last summer, K-pop sensation NewJeans has cemented its place as a formidable force in the music industry. The five-member group has been on a meteoric rise, conquering music charts both at home and abroad with their debut EP "New Jeans" and subsequent hit singles.
Marking an extraordinary debut, the group's four-song EP saw all three title tracks soaring to the top of local music charts, making NewJeans the biggest girl group entrance into the K-pop scene since Blackpink in 2016. Aptly described as "daily yet timeless," NewJeans' music has an enduring appeal that continues to captivate listeners, with the EP "New Jeans" achieving a milestone as the first K-pop debut album to surpass a million streams, accomplishing the feat in February.
Breaking barriers and setting new records, NewJeans' release of "OMG" and its pre-release "Ditto" earlier this year made history as the group achieved a milestone debut on both US and UK song charts. The band's impressive momentum further propelled them to be the fastest Korean artist to reach a billion streams on Spotify, and they secured their first Guinness World Record.
As NewJeans celebrates a remarkable one-year journey, their second EP, "Get Up," has arrived, promising another round of trend-setting music. Leading the way with three title tracks, "Super Shy," "ETA," and "Cool With You," NewJeans continues to push boundaries and solidify their place on international charts. The group's "Super Shy" debuted at No. 66 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, their highest rank to date, and renewed their record on the UK Official Singles chart to No. 59.
With unwavering determination and appreciation for their fans, NewJeans members shared their thoughts ahead of the global release of "Get Up." Hyein emphasized the group's unique musicality, aiming to create music that resonates with their listeners and can be enjoyed effortlessly by everyone. For the bandmates, their shared understanding of music, deep connections with collaborators, and the empathetic bond with their fans define their work.
Despite their teenage years filled with busy schedules and unprecedented events, the girls find solace in each other's company, cherishing the moments they share while training, working, and having fun together. As the group envisions the future, they eagerly anticipate their first global concert series, where they hope to connect with fans worldwide through the power of music.
The journey of every album is a challenge and new experience for the girls, pushing them to showcase their growth and maturity. With "Get Up," NewJeans ventures into new musical territory, breaking boundaries with a diverse range of genres and formats that resonate beautifully with their vocal colors.
As NewJeans' music continues to captivate hearts worldwide, the group remains grateful to their fans, fondly known as "Bunnies." Their deepening bond and intimacy with fans inspire the band to create even more unforgettable memories together.
NewJeans' second EP, "Get Up," released at 1 p.m. on Friday, signaling another chapter in the band's remarkable journey, and the world eagerly awaits the next wave of their timeless music.
