After 5 weeks of the seemingly unbreakable run, TREASURE finally dethroned BLACKPINK in the NEW K.ID’s Weekly Idol Ranking. This is TREASURE’s first time breaking into the #1 spot in the weekly chart and it is a remarkable achievement for a group that only officially made its debut last month. TREASURE made their official debut last August with an album, [THE FIRST STEP: CHAPTER ONE]. Its main track, ‘BOY’, broke into not only the iTunes top song chart in 19 countries but also the Billboard Social 50 chart and Emerging Artists chart. After their successful debut, TREASURE is preparing to make a quick comeback with their second album, [THE FIRST STEP: CHAPTER TWO].
