NewJeans Make Appearance On Billboard’s Prestigious “21 Under 21” List
NewJeans have made waves in the K-Pop scene since their debut merely two years ago. Their impressive numbers and catchy music have now earned them a spot on Billboard‘s esteemed “21 Under 21” list.
The list is made to give recognition to young artists who are making or set to make a significant impact in the music industry.
The group’s swift rise to fame is marked by several notable achievements on multiple charts — especially Billboard ones. They have secured three top 10 positions on the Billboard Global 200, four on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, five on the Hot 100, and six on the World Digital Song Sales chart, according to Billboard.
Among the numerous successful singles released by the ADOR girl group, one stands out. According to Billboard, “Super Shy” was the group’s highest entry on the chart. It even topped the Barbie soundtrack!
Its highest among them was the high-energy breakout “Super Shy,” from NewJeans’ second EP, Get Up. Upon release, it bested the Barbie soundtrack for No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

But the young group’s achievements don’t stop here. Earlier this year, in February, the five members were honored with Billboard’s Women in Music Group of the Year award, solidifying their status as a leading force in the music scene despite being so young.
The group’s ability to connect with a diverse audience through their energetic performances and relatable music has set them apart in the competitive K-Pop industry. Their inclusion in the “21 Under 21” list highlights not only their past accomplishments but also their potential for future success. Even though so young, NewJeans continue to break old records and set new ones all the time — making it look way too easy.
Billboard even mentions one of the members’ words regarding how social media has helped them reach wider audiences in their list.
Hanni, one of the group’s members, attributes their global success to the power of social media. ‘It has become easier to reach wider audiences regardless of language or any other type of barriers,’ she explains. ‘That is something we definitely don’t take for granted.’
