군백기 없다..방탄소년단 ‘봄날’ 6년 만 역주행, 83개 지역 깜짝 1위

군백기 없다..방탄소년단 ‘봄날’ 6년 만 역주행, 83개 지역 깜짝 1위 그룹 방탄소년단(BTS, RM 진 슈가 제이홉 지민 뷔 정국)의 ‘봄날’이 6년 만에 또 한번 글로벌 차트를 강타했다. 지난 13일 일본 오리콘 차트가 발표한 ‘데일리 디지털 싱글 랭킹'(12월 12일 자)에서 방탄소년단이 2017년 발매한 ‘WINGS 외전: YOU NEVER WALK ALONE’의 타이틀곡 ‘봄날’이 깜짝 1위에 올랐다. 이 차트의 순위권 밖에 자리했던 ‘봄날’이 순위가 급상승하며 1위로 직행한 것이다. 또한 ‘봄날’은 12일부터 14일 오전 8시까지 기준으로 미국, 일본, 독일, 영국, 프랑스 등을 비롯해 총 83개 국가/지역의 아이튠즈 ‘톱 송’ 차트 1위를 찍었다. 다수의 국가/지역 ‘톱 송’ 차트에서 연말을 맞아 캐럴(Carol) 장르가 강세를 보이는 가운데, 머라이어 캐리(Mariah Carey)의 메가 히트곡 ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’를 제치고 ‘봄날’이 차트 정상에 올라 눈길을 끈다. 이 같은 ‘봄날’의 역주행에는 아미(ARMY. 팬덤명)의 저력이 있었다. 지난 12일부로 전원 군 복무에 돌입한 방탄소년단의 오는 2025년 완전체 활동을 기다리는 팬들의 따뜻한 마음이 차트에 반영된 것으로 예상된다. 한편, ‘봄날’은 브릿 록(Brit-rock)적인 감성과 일렉트로닉 사운드가 결합된 얼터너티브 힙합(Alternative hip-hop) 장르의 곡으로, RM과 슈가가 작곡에 참여해 멀어진 친구와의 만남을 기다리며 희망을 잃지 않겠다는 메시지를 곡에 담았다.

Girl group NewJeans (Minji, Hani, Daniel, Haerin, Hyeein) has maintained their strong presence by topping the weekly charts of major domestic music sites for four consecutive weeks.

The pre-release track and one of the triple title tracks of NewJeans’ second mini-album ‘Get Up’, ‘Super Shy’, rose to the top spot on the weekly charts of Melon and Genie (July 31 to August 6) announced on the 7th and has maintained the throne for a month.

On the Bugs weekly chart, another title track, ‘ETA’, took the top spot. Previously, ‘Super Shy’ had stayed at the top for two weeks, and ‘ETA’ continued the reign, making NewJeans stay at the top for two consecutive weeks. ‘ETA’ is also popular, ranking second on Melon and Genie along with ‘Super Shy’.

‘Super Shy’ took over the real-time and daily charts of major domestic music sites as soon as it was released last month on the 7th. It swept the weekly and monthly charts in July, and with ‘ETA’ now leading the popularity, NewJeans has once again promised a long-run of popularity as ‘NewJeans vs. NewJeans’.

NewJeans has also stormed the overseas charts.

In the latest chart of the U.S. Billboard (as of August 5), NewJeans’ second mini-album ‘Get Up’ ranked first on the ‘Billboard 200’, and all three title tracks of the album broke into the ‘Hot 100’, confirming explosive growth in just one year since their debut.

They also showed their presence on the Official Charts of the UK, known as the world’s two major pop charts. NewJeans’ ‘Super Shy’ rose to 61st place (highest ranking 52nd, as of July 28th) on this week’s Official Singles Chart ‘Top 100’, staying on the chart for four consecutive weeks, and the second mini-album stayed on the Official Albums Chart for two consecutive weeks, ranking 38th (highest ranking 15th, as of July 28th).

With the power of this global popularity, NewJeans became the first K-pop girl group to perform at the large-scale music festival ‘Lollapalooza Chicago’ on the 3rd (local time), leading approximately 70,000 spectators to sing along. NewJeans is scheduled to meet music fans around the world once again at ‘Summer Sonic 2023’ in Japan on the 19th.
