New Jeans, Billboard's 'Global 200' 2nd place
On the 17th (local time), US Billboard first released the major chart rankings compiled from data from July 7th to 13th through its homepage and social media. According to this, 'Super Shy', the triple title song and pre-released single of the 2nd mini album 'Get Up' by New Jins (Minji, Hani, Daniel, Haerin, Hyein), ranked 2nd in both 'Global 200' and 'Global (excluding the US)'. occupied the top
Billboard said, "New Jeans' 'Super Shy' recorded 63 million streams and more than 6,000 music sales (downloads) in one week (based on 'Global 200')."
'Super Shy' is New Jeans' third song to reach the 'Top 10' of both charts. Previously, in January of this year, the b-side song 'Ditto' and the title song 'OMG' from the single album 'OMG' ranked 8th and 10th respectively on the 'Global 200'. The highest ranking in 'Global (excluding the US)' was 'Ditto' at 4th and 'OMG' at 7th.
This new song 'Super Shy' turned on the green light to enter the 'Hot 100' by going straight to No. 2 on this chart in the first week of its release. You can get a glimpse of the explosive popularity of New Jeans, which is rapidly spreading in the mainstream pop market without local activities.
New Jeans' 'career high' march continues. Previously, "Super Shy" changed New Jeans' own top rankings on various global charts, including 9th on Spotify's "Daily Top Song" in the US and 59th on the UK's Official Singles "Top 100."
New Jeans' 2nd mini album 'Get Up' will be released on the 21st at 1pm. As this album contains a total of 6 songs including 'Super Shy', another title song 'ETA' and 'Cool With You', it seems that the 'New Jeans Syndrome' will continue.
