The 4th generation Kpop group, NewJeans, has been making waves on the internet with its debut year’s song – “Ditto.” As the title suggests, it has garnered 500 million streams on Spotify, and that’s not a matter of joke. Congrats! In a short time, the girls proved themselves, and we are so proud of them.
NewJeans made its debut last year under ADOR. To the newbies, it comprises five members – Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein, respectively. When it comes to NewJeans, the group ushers the new generation of pop music, referring to the name as “new genes.”
In the middle of this year, more precisely in July, NewJeans released its second extended play – Get Up. As expected, it earned much success. Some of the other notable works are – Attention, OMG, Super Shy, Cool with You, etc. Besides music, this new Kpop group also collaborated with many famous brands, including Coca-Cola, McDonald’s Korea, etc.
Moving on with NewJeans’ “Ditto” song, it was released on 19 December 2022. So, it’s just been a year that it has reached such a milestone, surpassing 500 million worldwide streams. It is nothing short of remarkable.
A Huge Success Of Kpop Group NewJeans: Ditto Surpassed 500 Million Spotify Streams Globally
Recently, on 4 December 2023, the group’s agency, ADOR, made an official announcement regarding NewJeans’ “Ditto,” reaching a milestone of 500 million streams on Spotify. In other words, the song has become a streaming phenomenon, and fans have already gone crazy.
As the news came out, fans started posting clips of the song “Ditto” on different social media platforms. That’s how the reach is increasing daily.
Well, it’s no longer an exception. Because “Ditto” also successfully made it to the top of South Korea’s streaming service- Melon. To be more precise, it previously ranked one and held it for 14 consecutive weeks.
The popularity of “Ditto” isn’t limited just to its origin – South Korea – but is also spread across the world. Not to forget to mention it also made a position in the US Billboard’s Hot 100. Being a member of its fandom- “Bunnies,” you will be happier to know that it happened just six months after their debut.
When it comes to NewJeans’ accolades for “Ditto,” the group earned the 2023 MAMA Awards and the 2023 Melon Music Awards. Congratulations, once again!
The success of “Ditto” is not limited to streaming services like Spotify and Melon. Even on YouTube, it has garnered nearly 40 million views to date. Isn’t that great?
The way NewJeans is growing as a Kpop group globally, the ascent shows no signs of failure or even slowing down. We believe it will have an exciting journey ahead. Each of the NewJeans has been hard working since the very start. Whatever they have achieved so far, it’s worth it.
However, it’s not the first time though. NewJeans’ other single, OMG, also crossed 500 million streams. If comparisons are made between Ditto and OMG, which is your favorite? Little did you know NewJeans has also claimed the throne from BLACKPINK‘s Lisa, who previously held the title for 411 days. To be more precise, it started from 26 October 2022 to 27 March 2023.
Best Wishes to NewJeans members for their upcoming work. We are eagerly waiting for the release, with the hope that it achieves more success.
