“Wondaland,” the first studio album from hip-hop group MFBTY, has made a strong showing on the music charts, nearly a week after its release on Thursday.

MFBTY, composed of female rapper Yoon, her husband and rapper Tiger JK and Bizzy, topped the Kakao Music chart for the fourth week of March with one of its lead tracks “Hello Happy.” The other two lead tracks ― “Bang Diggy Bang Bang” and “Make It Last” ― also made it to the top three of the chart. 

MFBTY achieved rare success as a hip-hop group on the music chart, which is normally dominated by veteran balladeers such as IU, Lee Sun-hee and Lee Seung-chul.

The triple lead tracks also ranked in the top 10 of other local music charts, including Daum Music and Cyworld Music, for five straight days so far.

The hip-hop trio’s musical “experiment” is winning positive feedback, such as they skillfully fused their own distinctive melodies into tracks of various genres on the album.

The 16-track album features a slew of big-name artists from different backgrounds, including rocker Jeon In-gwon, balladeer Yoo Hee-yeol, idol group BEAST member Yong Jun-hyung and BTS leader Rap Monster.

MFBTY was formed in 2013 to create “fun music”, with the group dropping its debut album “Sweet Dream” the same year.

Yoon and Tiger JK married in 2007 and have a seven-year-old son named Seo Jordan.
