Girl group LE SSERAFIM (Sakura, Kim Chaewon, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, Hong Eunchae) has illuminated their global popularity by entering five categories on the US Billboard charts.
According to the latest charts (dated May 13) announced by the American music magazine Billboard on May 9 (local time), LE SSERAFIM's first full album's title track 'UNFORGIVEN (feat.

The album of the same name recorded 5th place on 'Heatseekers Albums' and 8th place on 'World Albums.'
LE SSERAFIM has updated their personal best chart entry in four categories on the Billboard charts, demonstrating their heightened global status just one year after their debut. In addition, they achieved the highest ranking among the newly charting songs and albums on the same day in 'Billboard Global 200,' 'Billboard Global (Excluding US),' and 'World Albums.'
On 'Billboard Global (Excluding US),' their previous title track 'ANTIFRAGILE' also caught attention as it ranked 129th. 'ANTIFRAGILE' has been on the Billboard chart for 29 consecutive weeks, and its rank surged by 35 spots compared to the previous week, suggesting that the interest in the new release extends to their previous work.
It is expected that 'UNFORGIVEN (feat. Nile Rodgers),' which has opened the gates of success with its highest entry record, will surpass the previous track's 29-week consecutive chart entry and establish a new 'career high.'
Meanwhile, LE SSERAFIM began their trophy hunt in earnest by winning first place on SBS MTV 'The Show' aired on May 9. LE SSERAFIM will continue their second week of music show performances through MBC M 'Show! Champion' on May 10, Mnet 'M Countdown' on May 11, KBS 2TV 'Music Bank' on May 12, and SBS 'Inkigayo' on May 14.
