In December, Billboard and many international charts announced the rankings of many songs released in 2024.
At the "Billboard Year-End Chart Global 200 Songs", ILLIT attracted attention with the hit "Magnetic" - the title song of their debut mini album "Super Real Me".
Accordingly, “Magnetic” ranked 61st on the “Billboard Global 200 Songs” and 29th on the Global chart (excluding the US). With this achievement, “Magnetic” set a new record, becoming the highest-ranking K-pop group song on Billboard's 2024 year-end chart.
Additionally, ILLIT also ranked 68th on the "Global 200 Artists" chart, 48th on the "Global Artists" chart (excluding the US).
Billboard ranks based on physical album sales, digital music, streaming figures, radio airplay, YouTube views, etc. Especially for new, non-English speaking artists like ILLIT, scoring points in the radio airplay category in the US is very difficult.
Previously, ILLIT has achieved many outstanding achievements on international music charts. With “Magnetic”, ILLIT became the Kpop artist whose debut song entered the “Billboard Hot 100” chart fastest after its debut.
In addition, HYBE's group unexpectedly broke Fifty Fifty's record, being named as the Kpop artist to enter the UK's Official Singles chart (equivalent to the US's "Billboard Hot 100") fastest in history, after only 11 days of release.
ILLIT, a 5-member girl group consisting of Iroha, Moka, Wonhee, Minju, Yunah, was formed through the K-pop idol audition program “RU NEXT?” on JTBC and is managed by Belift Lab, a subsidiary of HYBE.
