GFRIEND's mini-album "THE AWAKENING" ranked 5th on the US Billboard World Album Chart
Girl group GFRIEND ranked fifth on the US Billboard World Album Chart.
According to the Billboard World Album Chart released on the morning of the 15th (Korean time), GFRIEND's 4th album "THE AWAKENING" ranked 5th. GFRIEND became the first K-pop girl group to top the Billboard World Album Chart, which boasts the highest authority and tradition in the United States, following their first No. Ranked within a week of release.
The 3rd mini-album "SNOWFLAKE" released in January last year ranked 10th on the Billboard World Album Chart for the first time. Following that, the 1st full album 'LOL' ranked 7th, and the 4th mini-album 'THE AWAKENING' ranked 5th, and the ranking is gradually rising.
Billboard spotlighted this album, GFRIEND's "THE AWAKENING", evaluated it as the most prominent girl group in K-POP, and praised GFRIEND's new song "FINGERIP", which depicts the growth of GFRIEND. The title song "FINGERTIP" is a song by GFRIEND's producer Lee Gi Young Bae, "The song expresses how girls who manipulate the hearts of their loved ones love.

GFRIEND's 4th album "THE AWAKENING" ranked 5th on the US Billboard World Album Chart.
Compared to the main Hot 100, it's a downgraded chart. However, the world album chart is opening its doors to the world, not just to K-pop. In K-POP, only popular groups such as BTS, EXO, BIGBANG, Girls' Generation, and TWICE, and solo singers such as Taeyeon have the power to show their faces here.
What's more, not just any song sung by a first-class singer will rank in. I can't show my face here unless I get a lot of response in Korea. It is different from the local Korean chart.
GFRIEND's music made an appearance here.
"Eh! Seriously?" I was surprised.
I wouldn't be so surprised if former 2NE1, TWICE, EXID, Taeyeon or Jessica join the group. 2NE1 was a group known in America, and TWICE is a girl whose global popularity can be seen from the number of views on YouTube. Taeyeon and Jessica are members of Girls' Generation (including former members) who are a little known in America.
However, I didn't expect GFRIEND to show up here. I know there are a few K-pop fans in America, but their music has a strong image of Asian pop.
The new song "FINGERTIP" also has an up-tempo rhythm, and if you listen carefully, it's Asian pop. If you catch this music with a slightly looser rhythm, you can even feel something like a trot in the flow of the melody that is sung.
I'm surprised that this song has been rated highly. There are a lot of articles praising it, but it's really rare to get rave reviews. If that happens in TWICE or EXID, I feel like I can understand a little bit...
Or maybe it's safe to say that American K-POP fans are finally starting to build the groundwork for GFRIEND-style music to be accepted...
Aside from the music, I think that American K-POP fans were stunned by their sharp dance to the rhythm of GFRIEND.
