XG
Immediately after its comeback, XG topped international charts and album sales, amid explosive reactions from domestic and international fans.
XG (Jurin, Chisa, Cocona, Hinata, Maya, Juria, and Harvey) made its comeback with the mini album “AWE” on November 8. “AWE” is an album that makes you feel the psychological process of wonder, and it contains the determination to move forward to the top without giving up.
“AWE” topped the daily album chart of Japan’s Oricon Chart on the day of its release. The title track “Howling” ranked seventh on the Vibe Global Surge Chart, ranked as YouTube Music Trending in Japan, Australia, Canada, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, and ranked in the top 50 of the iTunes Song Chart (World Wide).
Album sales are also extraordinary. Today, “AWE” sales have exceeded 43,000 albums, ranking sixth on the Hanteo Chart Physical Albums Weekly Chart. Expectations are rising that the album will break its own record, surpassing “NEW DNA,” which previously sold 45,000 copies.
The music video for “Howling” is receiving explosive reactions from fans not only in Korea but also overseas. Fans say, “We visualize a legend every time they make a comeback. The quality is crazy,” “I’ve never seen this kind of thing before. It’s creative,” “It’s amazing,” and “It’s like we’re in a race.”
XG, who received explosive reactions along with its comeback, participated in KBS2’s “Music Bank,” MBC’s “Show! Music Core,” and SBS’s “Inkigayo.”
Starting in the UK on the 18th, XG will hold a European performance of “The First HOWL” world tour in Germany, France, and the Netherlands.
