ILLIT's 'It's Me' Tops 200 Million Streams on Spotify

K-POP girl group ILLIT has another song past 200 million streams on Spotify. According to the global streaming platform, the group's track "It's Me" had been played 200,329,058 times as of the 13th.

The milestone gives ILLIT its seventh song with more than 200 million Spotify streams. "It's Me" is the title track of the group's fourth EP, "MAMIHLAPINATAPAI." ILLIT is made up of Yunah, Minju, Moka, Wonhee and Iroha.

The song is a techno track about the moment after a first date, when you are still trying to figure out what the relationship is. In the lyrics, the singer confidently tells the person she likes that she is the most special one. A repeated chorus, a fast beat and high-energy choreography helped the song pick up attention outside South Korea as well.

Released April 30, "It's Me" has stayed on major music charts for more than six months. Its music video passed 200 million views on YouTube 180 days after it came out. No other ILLIT music video has reached that mark faster.

The song has also spent 27 straight weeks on Billboard's Global Excl. U.S. chart. At home, it is still ranked on the latest weekly charts of Korean streaming services Melon, Bugs and Genie, covering Nov. 2 to 8. In Japan, it placed near the top of Oricon's weekly streaming ranking dated Nov. 16 and the Billboard Japan Hot 100 dated Nov. 11.

ILLIT now has 10 songs with more than 100 million plays on Spotify. Its debut single, "Magnetic," has passed 900 million streams about two years and seven months after its release. No debut song by a K-pop group has reached that number faster.

Along with "It's Me," the songs "Lucky Girl Syndrome," "Cherish (My Love)," "Tick-Tack," "Do the Dance" and "NOT CUTE ANYMORE" have each topped 200 million streams. "ICONIC BY MISTAKE," a special collaboration single with LE SSERAFIM and KATSEYE, has hit the same mark. "Midnight Fiction" and "jellyous" have each crossed 100 million.

The group's newest release is doing well overseas, too. Its fifth EP, "BREAK EVEN," reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200, Billboard's main albums chart. That is the group's best rank on the chart so far. The album also hit No. 1 on both Billboard's Top Album Sales and World Albums charts.

The title track, "Chepohagesseo," entered Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100. That chart tracks songs that came close to the main Hot 100 singles chart but did not make it.

The song also took No. 1 on Billboard Korea's Global K-Songs chart. The chart ranks the popularity of K-pop songs using data from more than 200 countries and regions.

Older songs are still adding up streams, and the new album is setting personal bests. Together, they keep ILLIT on music and album charts in Korea and around the world.
