LE SSERAFIM's "FEARLESS" Becomes 2022 Girl Group Debut Song With Highest Peak on MelOn
Source Music's new girl group LE SSERAFIM has been breaking several records on Korean music charts while also setting new records since they made their debut on May 2 with their first mini-album "FEARLESS."
Recently, the sextet achieved a new milestone on MelOn, which is South Korea's biggest music streaming platform where not only K-pop songs are available but also international tunes.
On May 29, LE SSERAFIM's "FEARLESS" reached a new height on MelOn's daily chart, climbing up one spot from No. 11 to No. 10.

This is an incredible feat as no girl group debut songs released this year had entered the top 10 in the past few months. This means "FEARLESS" is the first and only 2022 debut song by a K-pop girl group to chart within the top 10.
This also now means that LE SSERAFIM's "FEARLESS" is now the highest-charting 2022 girl group debut song on MelOn's daily chart.
In addition to that, this achievement makes LE SSERAFIM the third fourth-generation girl group in history to land inside the top 10 with a debut song, following ITZY and IVE. "FEARLESS" also now comes behind ITZY's "DALLA DALLA" and IVE's "ELEVEN" on the list of highest-charting debut songs by fourth-generation K-pop girl groups on MelOn's daily chart. Both "DALLA DALLA" and "ELEVEN" scored No. 3 on the tally.

The six other idol group songs to do so are GOT the beat's "Step Back," STAYC's "RUN2U," (G)I-DLE's "TOMBOY," Red Velvet's "Feel My Rhythm," BIGBANG's "Still Life," and IVE's "LOVE DIVE."
Meanwhile, "FEARLESS" also scored new heights on other Korean music daily charts for May 29. The track peaked at No. 2 on Bugs and No. 10 on Genie (the song's highest position on the chart since its release). On VIBE, the debut song maintained its place at No. 5 for five consecutive days, from the 26th to 30th.
