The group LE SSERAFIM has been nominated for an award at a U.S. music awards show. They also proved their worldwide popularity once again by placing nine songs on Circle Chart's annual "Global K-pop Chart."
According to the list of nominees released by the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards in the U.S. on the 8th (local time), LE SSERAFIM (Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Heo Yunjin, Kazuha, Hong Eunchae)'s single album title track "SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS)" was nominated in the "Favorite TikTok Dance" institutional sector.
With this, they proved their global prominence by being named as nominees at this awards show for two consecutive years. LE SSERAFIM last year competed for the "Favorite K-pop Dance Challenge" institutional sector award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards with the mini album 3 track "Smart."
The iHeartRadio Music Awards is a music awards show hosted by the U.S. online radio broadcaster iHeartRadio since 2014. It selects the artists and songs most played on iHeartRadio broadcasts and applications over the year. This year's awards will be broadcast on March 26 on the U.S. TV channel FOX.
LE SSERAFIM's global influence is clearly confirmed on Circle Chart, Korea's official pop music chart. On the 9th, Circle Chart released its 2025 annual "Global K-pop Chart," where they placed an impressive nine songs. CRAZY (No. 28), HOT (No. 40), Perfect Night (No. 65), SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS) (No. 67), ANTIFRAGILE (AntiFragile) (No. 90), Smart (No. 129), Come Over (No. 145), EASY (No. 168), Eve, Psyche and Bluebeard's Wife (No. 181) — recent songs as well as earlier releases entered the chart evenly. Because the "Global K-pop Chart" is compiled based on K-pop streaming usage worldwide, it shows that their music continues to be loved beyond its release year.
Among these, last year's releases "HOT" and "SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS)" entered the top ranks of the annual "digital chart," "streaming chart," and "download chart." In particular, the "digital chart" and "download chart" also included "Perfect Night," the group's first English digital single released in Oct. 2023, proving their powerful digital performance. Their album achievements also stand out. Both the mini 5th album and the single album ranked within the top 50 on the "album chart" and the "retail album chart." As a result, LE SSERAFIM ranked No. 9 on the "social chart 3.0," which reflects global social media popularity.
LE SSERAFIM will attend the "40th Golden Disc Awards" held at Taipei Dome on the 10th. Afterwards, from Jan. 31 to Feb. 1 they will hold "LE SSERAFIM TOUR 'EASY CRAZY HOT' ENCORE IN SEOUL" to conclude the world tour at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul. The performance sold out in general ticket sales, and the additionally opened limited-view seats also sold out quickly.
