ILLIT have achieved another impressive milestone in their musical journey as their song ‘Do the Dance’ officially surpassed 200 million streams on Spotify.
The achievement makes it the girl group’s sixth track to cross the 200-million-stream mark, further highlighting their growing popularity and strong presence in the global music industry.
According to Spotify data announced on November 10, the song had accumulated 200,304,860 streams as of November 8.
Released as the title track of ILLIT‘s third mini album, ‘bomb’, ‘Do the Dance’ has continued attracting listeners since its release, establishing itself as another successful addition to the group’s growing collection of streaming hits.
The latest achievement is particularly significant because it demonstrates the group’s ability to maintain listeners’ interest across multiple releases.
Since their debut, ILLIT have steadily expanded their international audience, with several songs gaining impressive streaming numbers.
The new milestone adds to that momentum and reinforces the group’s position among the notable fourth-generation K-pop girl groups.
‘Do the Dance’ Joins ILLIT’s Growing List of 200 Million-Stream Hits
‘Do the Dance’ is a French house-inspired track featuring romantic string elements.
The song captures the excitement, nervousness and freshness associated with experiencing a first date.
Its cheerful musical arrangement and distinctive atmosphere helped it stand out among the group’s releases.
The track’s Korean title, ‘Billyeoon Goyangi’, translates to ‘Borrowed Cat’.
It draws inspiration from an expression comparing someone who feels awkward or dazed in an unfamiliar situation to a borrowed cat.
This unusual concept is reflected in the song’s lyrics and choreography, which attracted attention when the track was first released.
The choreography features delicate yet sharp movements inspired by the behaviour of cats, adding a distinctive visual element to the performance.
The song also gained recognition for its playful expressions, including phrases such as ‘Kkungshil Nyaong’ and ‘Doomchit Nyaong’, which contributed to its memorable identity.
With this latest achievement, ‘Do the Dance’ joins five other ILLIT tracks that have surpassed 200 million Spotify streams.
These include their debut hit ‘Magnetic’, ‘Lucky Girl Syndrome’, ‘Cherish (My Love)’, ‘Tick-Tack’ and ‘NOT CUTE ANYMORE’.
Their special collaboration single ‘ICONIC BY MISTAKE’, featuring LE SSERAFIM and KATSEYE, has also crossed the same milestone.
ILLIT have additionally established a strong presence in the 100-million-stream category.
Their songs ‘Midnight Fiction’ and ‘jellyous’ have each surpassed 100 million plays, bringing the group’s total number of tracks with more than 100 million streams to nine.
Their debut song, ‘Magnetic’, has also crossed 900 million Spotify streams, marking another major achievement for the group.
ILLIT Continue Their Global Success With ‘BREAK EVEN’
Beyond their streaming achievements, ILLIT are continuing to build momentum with their fifth mini album, ‘BREAK EVEN’, which was released last month.
The album delivered an impressive performance on the US Billboard charts, entering the Billboard 200 at No. 6 for the chart dated November 14, 2026. This marked the group’s first entry into the chart’s top 10.
The album’s title track, ‘You’re Under Arrest’, has also attracted attention in South Korea.
During the tracking period from November 2 to November 8, the song secured strong positions on major domestic music charts, including Melon, Bugs and Genie Music.
Its addictive whistle sound and distinctive point choreography have helped it gain popularity on short-form video platforms such as TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
The track’s growing visibility has further contributed to the group’s ongoing promotional activities.
ILLIT’s cumulative Spotify streams across their entire discography have also exceeded 3.4 billion, demonstrating the scale of their global listenership.
From the remarkable success of ‘Magnetic’ to the latest achievement of ‘Do the Dance’, the group has continued adding significant milestones to its career.
With six songs now surpassing 200 million Spotify streams and nine tracks entering the 100-million-stream club, ILLIT are demonstrating consistent growth in the international music market.
The success of ‘Do the Dance’ marks another important chapter in their journey as they continue reaching new listeners through their music and performances.
