Illit surpassed 200 million views on YouTube with the music video for “Magnetic,” agency Belift Lab saidTuesday.
The video hit the milestone on the previous day, about a month before the rookie girl group’s first anniversary of debut.
“Magnetic” is the lead single in its debut EP “Super Real Me” and the dance number took the world by storm, not only sweeping all major music charts at home but also debuting on Billboard’s Hot 100 and UK’s Official Singles Top 100. On Spotify, the single has garnered over 540 million plays.
On Sunday, the group won rookie of the year at the Hanteo Music Awards 2024, meaning it now has five rookie trophies under its belt. Meanwhile, it released digital single “Almond Chocolate” in Japan last week which will be used for movie “It Takes More Than a Pretty Face to Fall in Love.”
