*This content was translated by AI.

Global group KATSEYE continues its successful run by simultaneously climbing both the singles and album rankings on the UK Official Charts.

According to the latest UK Official Charts released on the 5th, KATSEYE's third EP 'WILD' pre-release track 'Animal' rose one spot from Jeonju to claim 16th place on the 'Official Singles Top 100' (the 4th–10).

'Animal' previously reached its highest position on this chart at 12th, and has remained on the list for six consecutive weeks. The title track 'Hootie Frutti', released alongside the album on August 14, also entered the 'Official Singles Top 100' at 33rd, maintaining its position for three consecutive weeks.

Driven by the dual popularity of these two tracks, the album 'WILD' has maintained a strong ranking. On the 'Official Albums Top 100', 'WILD' secured 22nd place, two spots higher than Jeonju's 24th position. The album debuted at second place in its first week, setting a new record for KATSEYE's highest achievement on the UK Official Albums Chart.

On Spotify, the global audio and music streaming platform, both new releases and previously released tracks are performing well. In the same day's Spotify 'Weeekly Top Songs Global' (August 28–September 3), 'Animal' ranked 27th for six consecutive weeks on the chart, while 'Hootie Frutti' held its position at 49th for three consecutive weeks.

LE SSERAFIM's special collaboration single with ILLIT, 'ICONIC BY MISTAKE', reached 130th place and remained on the chart for 12 consecutive weeks. Their previous Latin pop hit 'Gabriela' also climbed from Jeonju's 169th to 163rd position, continuing its long-term run for the 63rd week.

KATSEYE demonstrated even stronger presence in the United States, the world's largest pop market. Previously, they topped the US Billboard Main Album Chart 'Billboard 200' (dated August 29) with 'WILD' at number one and simultaneously entered the song chart 'Hot 100' with four tracks: 'Animal' (24th), 'Hootie Frutti' (31st), 'PINKY UP' (81st), and 'ICONIC BY MISTAKE' (94th).

KATSEYE is a group launched by HYBE-Geffen Records under the 'Multi-home, multi-genre' strategy led by Chairman Bang Si-hyeok. Debuting in the United States in 2024 with the application of the 'K-pop methodology', they kicked off their 'THE WILDWORLD TOUR' on the 1st in Dublin, Ireland. Following visits to major cities in the UK and Europe in September, they are scheduled to meet fans across North America starting in October.
