SEVENTEEN Claims 2 Consecutive Weeks at No. 1 on K-POP RADAR…Making Debut on UK Charts

The group SEVENTEEN is demonstrating its growing global influence with their new song “THUNDER,” further solidifying their elevated status. On June 4, the fan data platform K-POP RADAR announced that SEVENTEEN secured the top spot for the second week in a row on its weekly fan chart for the first week of June, thanks to “THUNDER.” This chart ranks artists based on the percentage change in fan metrics over a one-week period. During the tracking period from May 29 to June 4, SEVENTEEN’s music video accumulated 18.81 million views. During the same timeframe, their Spotify follower count increased by 42,000, far exceeding the average increase of 1,400 for K-pop artists. They also showed a notable upward trend on social media. Over the week, SEVENTEEN gained 33,000 additional Instagram followers and 13,000 more Twitter followers. In contrast, the average increase for K-pop artists in Instagram followers during the same period was only 300, while Twitter saw an average increase of 60. The group also achieved success on UK charts. Their album “Happy Burstday,” which features the new song, entered the UK Official Album Downloads chart at position 38. This marks SEVENTEEN’s 10th appearance on this chart. The lead single from the same album, “THUNDER,” reached position 14 on the Official Singles Downloads chart and position 16 on the Official Singles Sales chart. These results represent SEVENTEEN’s best performance to date, surpassing the record previously held by their 2024 May release “Maestro.” K-POP RADAR commented, “SEVENTEEN proved their strong fan base by claiming the top spot for two consecutive weeks, with particularly significant increases in music video views and social media metrics.” Composed of 13 members, SEVENTEEN continues to release major projects annually, steadily reinforcing their position as a leading group in K-POP.
