The group Hearts2Hearts (Hearts2Hearts, SM Entertainment) is receiving a hot response in China with their new song "RUDE!."
Hearts2Hearts' new single "RUDE!" followed its No. 1 on QQ Music's new song chart and trend index chart by also taking first place on the K-pop weekly chart (on the chart for Feb. 20-26), showing the high level of local fans' interest in Hearts2Hearts and the new single.
In addition, on China's leading short-form platform Douyin, total views of videos using the "RUDE!" dance challenge hashtag surpassed 30 million views, leading a new global challenge craze following "The Chase," "STYLE" and "FOCUS."
Also, "RUDE!" peaked at No. 5 on Melon TOP100 (as of 11 p.m. on the 26th) and No. 16 on the daily chart (as of the 25th), marking another personal best for Hearts2Hearts, and last October's release "FOCUS" also drew attention again by peaking at No. 32 on the same chart.
Furthermore, the "RUDE!" music video surpassed 40 million views in 5 days and 17 hours after its release, achieving high view counts much faster than the previous work "FOCUS," which exceeded 40 million views about three months after the music video opened, demonstrating a distinctive rise in popularity.
