K-pop girl group ILLIT has achieved a remarkable milestone by gaining their first-ever Billboard Hot 100 hit with their viral debut single, ‘Magnetic’. The song has made its debut on the Hot 100 chart at the Number 91 spot, according to a recent X (formerly Twitter) post by Billboard. This is a significant accomplishment for the girl group, as they become the first K-pop act to debut on the chart with their first single. Apart from its success on the Billboard Hot 100, ILLIT’s ‘Magnetic’ has been gaining immense popularity on Spotify’s Weekly Music Charts. As of this writing, the song is at Number 11 on the global list and Number 47 on the USA-only list. Moreover, fans worldwide have used the song over 370,000 times on TikTok.

ILLIT released ‘Magnetic’ on March 25 as the lead single of their first mini-album, ‘Super Real Me’. The song showcases ILLIT’s unique sound, blending pop, electronic, and hip-hop genres. The girl group comprises five talented members: Wonhee, Minju, Iroha, Moka, and Yunah. Each brings their own unique style and personality to the group.

Before their official debut, ILLIT had started making waves in the fashion industry. They had been featured in the luxury fashion house Acne Studios SS24 global campaign.

With such a promising start, ILLIT is well on their way to becoming one of the most successful K-pop girl groups of all time.
