BLACKPINK's Jennie has taken the global charts by storm with her surprise special single "You & Me" dedicated to fans.

According to YG Entertainment on the 7th, Jennie's "You & Me," released at 1 PM (KST) the previous day, clinched the top spot on iTunes song charts in a total of 53 countries. Demonstrating its widespread popularity across the globe, the song also showed strong performance in English-speaking regions, ranking 5th in the UK and 4th in the US, thereby dominating the worldwide song charts.

Domestically, the song also made a splash. Right after its release, "You & Me" shot straight to the top on Naver VIBE and Bugs, while also securing top positions on real-time charts for Melon and Genie. Notably, on Melon, the song has been steadily climbing the ranks, showing a sharp upward trajectory and maintaining its high position.

The song, which adorned Jennie's solo stage during BLACKPINK's world tour, has previously received immense love from fans worldwide, especially for its silhouette performance set against a full moon backdrop.

The performance video, released alongside the official track, has also been highly praised for Jennie's captivating and intense aura, combined with perfectly timed lighting effects. This has led to the video being crowned as the "Most Watched Video in 24 Hours" on YouTube.

BLACKPINK, the group Jennie belongs to, recently concluded their massive world tour, "BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR [BORN PINK]," which attracted over 1.8 million attendees. This makes it the largest scale world tour by a K-pop girl group. They made history as the first Asian artists to headline the U.S. Coachella Festival (with a combined audience of 250,000 over two days) and the UK's Hyde Park (with 65,000 attendees), interacting with a total of over 2,115,000 fans.
