CUBE Entertainment‘s new boy group makes an impressive debut.
The new boy group NOWZ (Hyeonbin, Yoon, Yeonwoo, Jinhyuk, Siyun), under CUBE Entertainment, is showing remarkable performance since their debut.
Tracks from their first mini-album “IGNITION”, including the pre-release single “Fly to the youth (Feat. YUQI)”, the title track “Everglow”, and the song “Problem child” (문제아), have topped international music charts.
Released last month, “Fly to the youth (Feat. YUQI)” reached No.1 on QQ Music’s daily new release chart in China. It also climbed high on the challenge rankings on Douyin (the Chinese version of TikTok), garnering significant public attention. Both the Korean and Chinese versions of the track continue to rank, confirming its lasting popularity.
“Everglow” stood out on the global streaming platform Spotify. In Taiwan, it peaked at No.4 on the daily chart and stayed in the top 10, while landing at No.11 on the weekly chart. In Singapore, it ranked No.8 daily and No.13 weekly. In South Korea, it placed No.74 on the Melon HOT100, No.30 on the new releases chart (week one), and No.35 in real-time on Bugs.
“Problem child” (문제아) also drew attention when it entered the charts following the release of its performance video. With powerful and emotional choreography, NOWZ impressed audiences, ranking No.15 on Spotify Korea’s daily chart and No.17 in Singapore—signaling the rise of another standout track for the group.
Notably, the “Problem child” performance video reached No.58 on YouTube’s Korea music video ranking and continues to climb. Riding this momentum, NOWZ showcased the stage version of the track for the first time on July 23 on the music program “Show! Champion” on MBC every1.
Lastly, its debut mini-album “IGNITION” also made waves across the iTunes Worldwide charts, as well as top album rankings in Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, Brazil, and Japan’s Apple Music, solidifying NOWZ’s fast-growing global presence.
