NewJeans has captured the top spots on Japan’s major music charts for two consecutive days. According to the latest Oricon chart released on the 23rd, NewJeans’ Japanese debut single ‘Supernatural’ topped the ‘Daily Single Ranking’ on the 22nd. The single had already soared to the top position upon its release on the 21st.
The group’s strength extends to the digital music domain as well. The title track ‘Supernatural’ reached number one on Line Music’s real-time chart and continued to hold the top spot on the daily charts for the 22nd and 23rd. On Oricon’s ‘Daily Digital Single Ranking’ for the 22nd, ‘Supernatural’ climbed two spots from the previous day to secure third place. The accompanying track ‘Right Now’ also saw a rise, placing sixth.
The music videos for both ‘Supernatural’ and ‘Right Now’ maintain their popularity. They occupied the first and second spots on Line Music’s daily music video chart for the 23rd and ranked second and third on YouTube Korea’s daily popular music videos for the 22nd.
NewJeans is also performing well on domestic music charts. ‘Supernatural’ ranked 22nd and 29th on Melon and Genie daily charts, respectively. ‘Right Now’ also charted on both platforms, demonstrating their dual appeal. It is rare for a Japanese single to achieve high rankings on Korean music charts, showcasing NewJeans’ unique ability to transcend language barriers with their music.
Alongside their Japanese debut, NewJeans has been making appearances on major local television programs, cementing their presence. Today (24th), they will appear on TBS’s ‘CDTV Live! Live!’ Following this, they will hold a fan meeting, ‘Bunnies Camp 2024 Tokyo Dome,’ at the Tokyo Dome on the 26th and 27th. Despite being held on weekdays, tickets for the fan meeting sold out quickly.
