Girl group NewJeans ranked at No. 8 on Billboard’s Global 200 with its song “Ditto,” according to an announcement by Billboard on Monday.

The song also ranked at No. 4 on this week’s Global 200 Excl. U.S. chart.

This is NewJeans’ highest ranking on the two charts. NewJeans also became the fastest K-pop group to make it on the top 10 of the Global 200 and the top five of the Global 200 Excl. U.S.

NewJeans debuted in August 2022 under ADOR, a sublabel of K-pop powerhouse HYBE. It consists of five members: Hanni, Minji, Danielle, Haerin and Hyein.

The girl group most recently released its EP “OMG” on Jan. 2. “Ditto” dropped last month as a pre-released track from “OMG.”
