Singer Crush released the song "Miwo" in November 2023, and it is drawing attention for its reverse-climbing popularity on various music charts.
"Miwo" entered Melon Top 100 at No. 100 on March 1 and rose to No. 54 on that chart as of 8 a.m. on the 4th.
Besides Melon, on YouTube Music's domestic weekly popular songs chart for the week of Feb. 20-26 it ranked No. 54, No. 28 on the weekly popular artists chart, and No. 16 on Spotify's daily popular songs chart for March 2, among other chart rises.
"Miwo," one of the four title tracks from Crush's third studio album wonderego, ignited its chart comeback after a dance crew that popularized various dance challenges introduced the "Miwo challenge" in early last month.
Afterward, members of popular idol groups including IVE, KiiiKiii, NCT WISH, BOYNEXTDOOR, TWS, VERIVERY and KickFlip joined the challenge, fueling its popularity. That raises curiosity about how far "Miwo"'s comeback momentum will continue.
Meanwhile, Crush, who has secured a solid fanbase with his distinctive and original music, is currently appearing as a producer with close friend Zico on Mnet's "Show Me the Money 12," leading the program. He released the duet "Yin and Yang" (In and Yang) with Zico, and later performed a Fancy Child version of the song with Dean and pH-1, among other active pursuits.
Crush also demonstrated his strength as a musician again by winning two awards — "R&B album of the year" and "R&B track of the year" — at the Korean Hip Hop Awards 2026 (KHA 2026) held last month.
