K-pop group ILLIT has confirmed their appearance on ‘FNS Music Festival’, one of Japan’s representative year-end music programs. Following their confirmed appearance on ‘Kohaku Uta Gassen’, this news once again highlights ILLIT’s immense popularity.
Fuji TV in Japan announced that ILLIT is included in the lineup for the ‘2024 FNS Music Festival’ scheduled to air on December 4th. Despite not having officially debuted in Japan, ILLIT has proven their popularity locally by consecutively appearing on such popular year-end music specials. This achievement is attributed to the success of their mini album ‘SUPER REAL ME’ released in Korea this year, with the title track ‘Magnetic’ recording over 100 million cumulative streams on the Japan Record Association and Oricon charts.
‘Magnetic’ showcased its popularity by ranking 5th on TikTok Japan’s ‘Summer Songs of the Year 2024’ list. Additionally, ILLIT topped the ‘Rookie Artist Streaming Rankings for the First Half of 2024’ by Tower Records and claimed the top spot in the artist category of Shibuya109 lab’s ‘Trend Awards 2024’, dominating various charts.
ILLIT’s global influence extends beyond this. They were nominated in the ‘Top Global K-Pop Song’ category of the ‘2024 Billboard Music Awards’, announced on the 25th, and they were also nominated for the ‘2024 MTV Europe Music Awards’, Europe’s largest music awards ceremony. These achievements further solidify ILLIT’s position in the global music market.
As fans and music enthusiasts anticipate the stages and musical growth that ILLIT will showcase in the future, attention is focused on their upcoming activities.
