ILLIT Triumphs Again: Mini Album 'Bomb' Enters Billboard 200

K-pop group ILLIT has once again made a mark on the U.S. Billboard 200 with their third mini-album.

According to the latest chart released by Billboard on July 12 (local time), ILLIT's mini-album 'Bomb' debuted at No. 171 on the Billboard 200. This achievement follows their previous successes with their first mini-album 'SUPER REAL ME' and second mini-album 'I'LL LIKE YOU', marking a consistent presence on the chart since their debut.

Additionally, 'Bomb' secured the 8th spot on the 'Top Current Album Sales', 10th on 'Top Album Sales', and 25th on the 'World Albums' chart. The title track 'Do the Dance' maintained its position on both the 'Global 200' and 'Global (Excl. U.S.)' charts for two consecutive weeks.

Building on these accomplishments, ILLIT topped the 'Emerging Artists' chart, highlighting them as a rising global sensation.

The mini-album 'Bomb' is enjoying massive popularity, breaking initial sales records in both South Korea and Japan and dominating major album charts.

The title track 'Do the Dance' has been steadily climbing the charts since its release three weeks ago. Initially entering Melon's 'Top 100' at No. 76 on June 16, it soared to No. 23 as of July 9. In the latest weekly Melon chart (June 30 - July 6), it jumped 27 spots to reach No. 43.

ILLIT continues to ride this wave of success with their follow-up track 'Jellyous'. The music video, released on July 7, features funky styling and powerful performances that have captivated global fans. They will debut the 'Jellyous' stage on Mnet's 'M Countdown' tomorrow (July 10).
