'Fifty Fifty' ranked 85th with "Cupid” on Billboard
"Fifty Fifty" is a Korean
girl group formed by the company "Attrakt". It is composed of four
members: 'Keena', 'Saena', 'Sio' and 'Aran'. They officially debuted on
November 18, 2022 with the single "Higher" from their first EP titled "The Fifty". Their single "Cupid" made 'Fifty Fifty' the
fastest growing K-Pop group on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.
A rookie K-pop girl group, 'Fifty
Fifty' with less than five months since its debut has stayed for three
consecutive weeks on the U.S. Billboard's Hot 100 songs chart.
'Fifty Fifty' ranked 85th with its single "Cupid" on the latest chart updated Wednesday, rising nine spots from 94th a week ago, after debuting at No. 100 two weeks ago and entered the charts in the fastest time after launching among K-pop groups.
It took only 135 days for the quartet,
which debuted in November, to first enter the chart. The period is faster than
any other K-pop groups that have been on the U.S. Billboard chart.
During a press conference held in
Seoul on Thursday, the quartet said "it had never expected that kind of
thing would happen".
"Actually, I still cannot believe
it and appreciate it very much", band leader 'Saena' said. "We have
always thought about how to send our positive energy to listeners since we were
trainees and I cautiously assume such an effort worked".
The song also rose to No. 61 on the
British Official Singles Chart Top 100 unveiled last Friday, from 96th in its
first week on the chart and landed at No. 7 on Spotify's Daily Top Song Global
on Tuesday.
"Cupid" is the main track
off Fifty Fifty's first single album, "The Beginning: Cupid"
released Feb. 24.
What makes Fifty Fifty's achievement more surprising is the fact that the group is managed by a minor K-pop agency. The agency is 'Attrakt', a newcomer label established in 2021 and ‘Fifty Fifty’ was the first idol group launched by it.
