SuperM breaks Twitter Blueroom record with over 2 million viewers

K-pop supergroup SuperM broke a record after appearing at the Twitter Blueroom in Los Angeles earlier this month, drawing over a whopping 2 million viewers -- the highest figure to date.

The septet consists of members from various acts -- SHINee, EXO, NCT127 and WayV. It managed to attract the record-breaking global viewership on Oct. 7 as it directly engaged fans and showcased dance moves for nearly 1 1/2 hours.

In another sign of the group’s popularity, over 30 million tweets using the #SuperM hashtag and emoji were generated last month alone, according to data from Twitter.

Among the countries with the most tweets about SuperM were Thailand, Korea, Indonesia, the US and Japan. India, Brazil and Mexico also made it to the top 10.

SuperM is among the latest to have stopped by the Twitter Blueroom. Artists who previously appeared on the livestream include GOT7, KARD and Momoland.
