ITZY is no stranger to the Billboard charts. The K-pop girl group first charted back in 2019, and since then, have racked up multiple entries across different charts. And with the release of their new album BORN TO BE, it’s just the beginning.
This is Billboard Explains: The Rise of ITZY.
Since ITZY made their mark on the music scene, the girl group has appeared on a bunch of different Billboard charts, including the Billboard 200, thanks to albums like CRAZY IN LOVE, the first album, which peaked at No. 11 and featured the track “LOCO” and Checkmate mini-album, which peaked at No. 8. That same EP also debuted at No. 1 on the World Albums Chart, taking the top spot for a week in July 2022.
Other notable chart highlights include four songs in the Global 200 including “In the Morning,” which peaked at No. 34. 10 songs on the World Digital Song Sales Chart, including “DALLA DALLA” and five songs on the Global 200 Excl. US Chart, including “Not Shy,” which reached No. 70 in September 2020.
It’s clear that ITZY knows how to make a Billboard chart hit, and we can’t wait to see where BORN TO BE takes them next.
