Le Sserafim’s newly released song “Crazy” ranked No. 76 on Billboard’s Hot 100, said agency Source Music Tuesday citing the publication.
This is the second time the group made the main songs chart, after “Easy” which entered it at No. 99 in March. Le Sserafim is one of only two K-pop girl groups to make the chart this year -- along with Illit.
“Crazy” is the lead single from the group's fourth EP of the same title, which debuted at No. 7 on Billboard 200 after topping Oricon’s Daily Album Ranking. The single hit UK’s Official singles Chart Top 100 at No. 83, a first for the quintet.
Meanwhile, the members flew to New York Sunday to join the lineup for 2024 MTV Video Music Awards’ Pre-Show slated for Wednesday in the US.

Late last month, the rookie boy band wrapped up its fan concert tour in Japan in Aichi. The sold-out tour took the six members to nine cities for 15 live shows and they unveiled the three songs from the single in advance to the audience.
