Girl band QWER is continuing their ‘clear’ streak on major domestic charts.

QWER (Chodan, Magenta, Hina, Siyeon) released their second mini-album ‘Algorithm’s Blossom‘ on the 23rd of last month, and the title song ’My Name is Clear‘ ranked 2nd on Melon TOP 100, a major domestic music chart as of the 7th. This is the highest ranking QWER has ever achieved on the same chart.

QWER is also showing great strength on YouTube Music. Their new song ’My Name is Clear‘ ranked 1st on YouTube Music‘s weekly chart for 2 consecutive weeks, as well as 1st on the Korean Popular Songs Top 100 and the Most Popular Music Videos of the Day. This song also entered the Global Popular Songs Top 100 at 91st place, which is a remarkable achievement considering that ’My Name is Clear‘ is written entirely in Korean. Attention is being paid to whether QWER will rise to become the ’favorite girl band‘ of global listeners beyond Korea.

In addition, ’Worry Addiction‘, the title song of QWER’s first mini-album ’MANITO‘, released last April, also ranked 5th on the YouTube Music Weekly Chart. ’Worry Addiction‘ is still showing its undying popularity by being on the chart for 27 consecutive weeks.

In this way, QWER is showing overwhelming topicality on major domestic charts since their comeback. As part of their comeback promotions, YouTube web variety shows that QWER appeared in are leading the trend by continuously entering the TOP 10 of rapidly rising videos.

Meanwhile, ’Algorithm‘s Blossom’ is an album that contains the story of QWER forging a new destiny as a team. QWER‘s journey of blooming into a new flower through love and hurt is included in a total of 8 songs, drawing favorable reviews from listeners.
