ATEEZ
The group ATEEZ continues its rise in the United States with the success of its latest track “Work”.
On June 11, the American BILLBOARD chart revealed that ATEEZ had reached second place on the famous “Billboard 200”, placing itself alongside renowned international artists like TAYLOR SWIFT and BILLIE EILISH. The group thus sold more than 131,000 copies, breaking the 2024 US record for K-pop album sales during the first week. A record which earned ATEEZ second place in the “Billboard Artist 100“, first place on the “Billboard Best Album Sales Chart“, and fifth place on the “Billboard Best Vinyl Sales Chart“. An increased presence in the American chars added to those obtained in Europe, South Korea and Japan, once proving the group’s popularity worldwide.
In addition, on June 10, ATEEZ appeared on the NBC “Kelly Clarkson Show” to present the title track of its mini album “GOLDEN HOUR: PART. 1”. The announcement led to a strong reaction from ATINY (fandom name) due to the show’s success in the United States. Indeed, the latter has won several awards including the Emmy Awards and is widely followed locally.
Therefore, ATEEZ fascinated viewers during its performance by showing sophisticated visuals and unique staging. The members particularly worked on their facial expressions to best illustrate the lyrics of “Work” while presenting flawless vocal abilities. In addition, the choreography highlighted by the spectacular setting properly expressed the unique identity of ATEEZ.
Finally, ATEEZ will meet its fans through famous festivals like MAWAZINE and SUMMER SONIC 2024, in June and August 2024 respectively, as well as during the North American tour “TOWARDS THE LIGHT: WILL TO POWER” which will take place between July and August 2024.
