in korea they dont have a big chance to get to nj level especially after the mhj incident but this thread is about japan so im just speaking on that. illit is doing so well there i don't think its just the song. japans favorite nj song never did as well in japan hot 100, spotify or apple music. magnetic has been on hot100 top 10 this whole time up until now. i think they can be japans favourite korean girl group.
We'll see. They have two Japanese members do that will help
NewJeans being so popular in Japan has always impressed me, because they have no Japanese members and didn't start actively promoting there until literally just this month, yet they already sold out Tokyo Dome.
People are really underrating how stupid impressive that is
