Since their debut in Japan on September 1, ILLIT has shown a rising trend on various charts. Their first single 'Toki yo Tomare' ranked 2nd on Oricon and 4th on Billboard JAPAN Hot 100, marking significant success. Their music video also performed well, reflecting their growing popularity and active engagement in Japan, including performances on major TV shows and participation in fashion events.
ZEROBASEONE is on a winning streak, having topped Mnet's 'M COUNTDOWN' with their title track 'ICONIK' from their 1st full album 'NEVER SAY NEVER'. They achieved three consecutive wins across music shows and recorded over 1.51 million sales in a week, marking them as the first K-POP group with six consecutive million-seller albums. Their popularity extends beyond Korea, ranking high on Japanese charts and Billboard JAPAN, demonstrating their global appeal.
Min Hee-jin, former head of ADOR, is accused of preparing a 'buyout frame' for the girl group ILLIT prior to their debut. This claim arose during a court session regarding stock trading disputes with HYBE, where evidence was presented suggesting pre-debut planning. Min Hee-jin and HYBE's legal representatives debated allegations of plagiarism related to ILLIT's debut.
Starting October 1, ENHYPEN's limited-time afternoon tea, "EN-CHANTED BITE," will be available at eight Marriott hotels in Japan.
