The K-pop group NewJeans is gaining attention in the global music scene with their latest hit ‘How Sweet.’ The song secured 35th place on the ‘2024 Best Songs 100′ list curated by the renowned American music magazine Rolling Stone, reaffirming NewJeans’ unique musical style.
On December 3, Rolling Stone praised ‘How Sweet’ as a track that continues NewJeans’ experimental and fresh sound not commonly seen in K-pop. The song was particularly noted for its impressive blend of energetic electropop beats and bright, resonant vocals.
‘How Sweet’ also made it onto the ‘2024 Best K-pop 15′ list by the American music website PopMatters, marking another remarkable highlight in NewJeans’ discography. PopMatters appreciated the track for reflecting NewJeans’ effort to transcend the boundaries of K-pop with its lively beats and natural charm.
NewJeans’ popularity is also soaring in Japan. They ranked third in the musician category of the ‘Yahoo! Search Awards 2024′ announced by Japan’s largest portal site Yahoo Japan. This demonstrates NewJeans’ significant interest and influence in Japan, as they share high search rankings with local renowned artists.
In June, they released their Japanese debut single ‘Supernatural’ and made headlines by entering Tokyo Dome in the shortest time for an overseas artist, just one year and eleven months. This achievement led to NewJeans winning the Excellent Work Award for ‘Supernatural’ at Japan’s most prestigious music award ceremony, the 66th Japan Record Awards.
On December 4, NewJeans is set to solidify their popularity further by appearing on Fuji TV’s representative year-end special program, ‘FNS Music Festival.’ Expectations are high for how NewJeans will continue to expand the boundaries of K-pop.
