The group PLAVE is continuing to set career highs by achieving new personal best records on major US Billboard charts.

According to Billboard charts on the 27th (local time), PLAVE's fifth mini-album, 'HYPERDRIVE,' ranked No. 31 on the main album chart, the 'Billboard 200,' for the issue dated October 31. This is a rise of 114 spots from the No. 145 position achieved with their fourth mini-album, 'Caligo Pt.2,' and marks PLAVE's highest-ever ranking on that specific chart.

The group also continued its strong performance on major Billboard sub-charts. The title track, 'Star Trace,' previously entered the 'Billboard Global 200' at No. 68 for the issue dated October 24, surpassing the previous personal best of No. 138 set by 'BBUU!' to establish a new record. It also ranked No. 84 on the chart for the 31st, marking its second consecutive week on the chart. Four other tracks from the album also appeared on the charts for two consecutive weeks.

In particular, the group claimed the top spot on the 'Top Album Sales' chart, which reflects album sales performance, demonstrating its competitiveness in US record sales. It also topped the 'World Albums' chart and ranked No. 4 on the 'Independent Albums' chart. Showing the artist's influence, PLAVE placed No. 25 on the 'Artist 100' and No. 1 on the 'Emerging Artists' chart, standing out in both album and artist categories.

The response has been equally strong domestically. Immediately following its digital release on the 12th, 'HYPERDRIVE,' including its title track and other tracks, climbed to the top ranks of major domestic music streaming charts such as Melon, Genie, and Bugs, showcasing powerful streaming momentum. Album sales also broke through 1.32 million copies in the first week of release, setting a new personal best record.

Meanwhile, PLAVE is accelerating its global activities through its first world tour, 'KEEP IT MANIC.' Starting with performances in Korea, the group is scheduled to meet fans globally by visiting Macau on the 31st and November 1, followed by Los Angeles on November 14.
