Fifty Fifty is popular overseas and ‘reverse exported’ to Korea.
At 2pm on the 13th, the agency Attract held a press conference regarding Fifty Fifty's skyrocketing popularity.
On this day, Sio said, "I never thought that my name would be listed on a famous chart. When I found out the news, all the members were silent. It's an honor just to be on the chart."
Saena then said, "I woke up and listened to it. I liked it when I first heard the song. I knew it would do well, but I didn't know it would be this good. I'm happy just knowing that many people can hear our song."
Saena said, "It's great that people listen to our music a lot. We received a response from overseas first. I think it's because it has a strong 'synth pop' feel. I don't think we've yet had the same response in Korea as we have overseas. We have a lot of room to grow. “Because of this, I think many people in Korea love us. We will do our best to receive more love.”
Previously, actress Suzy praised Fifty Fifty's 'Cupid'. In response, Aran said, "I couldn't believe it. I would like to say that the support from my seniors really helps me a lot."
He also said, "In the meantime, if there's anything in common, people say that our music is good. I think we've proven that our music is good."
Fifty Fifty entered the Billboard Hot 100 four months after their debut through ‘Cupid’. It is currently ranked 85th. It also ranked first on Spotify in 10 countries, becoming the fourth K-pop group to do so after BTS, Blackpink, and New Jeans. In addition, the song is achieving amazing results, including ranking on domestic music charts.
