This achievement marked the fastest debut to the top of the Billboard 200 for any K-pop act in history.

Hot 100 Dominance with Chart-Topping Singles

NewJeans has consistently made waves in the industry, clinching the Top Global K-pop Artist title at the Billboard Music Awards in the previous year and earning the distinction of being the first K-pop female act to perform at the event.
