Girl group Rescene has reached the top of the Melon 'Top 100' chart for the first time since their debut, following a successful chart resurgence with their signature song 'LOVE ATTACK.'
According to their agency, The Muse Entertainment, 'LOVE ATTACK' climbed to the No. 1 spot on the 'Top 100' chart at 10:00 p.m. yesterday (July 8), surpassing I.O.I's 'Downpour.'
This milestone comes one year and 11 months after the release of 'LOVE ATTACK' in August 2024.
Rescene is a five-member girl group consisting of Woni, Liv, Minami, May, and Zena, who debuted in March 2024.
'LOVE ATTACK' previously climbed to 65th place on the Melon daily chart in May of last year, nine months after its release—a notable achievement in the highly competitive music industry where it is difficult for groups from smaller agencies to break into the top 100.
The song's second resurgence, which followed a gradual decline, was sparked by a YouTube broadcast by leader Woni this past March.
In a video featuring a 'gyaru' (the Japanese pronunciation of 'girl') concept—a fashion style popular in Japan—member Woni, who is from Geoje, said, "If you go to Geoje looking like that, you'll get scolded by the citizens of Geoje." The response from Japanese member Minami, who shouted "Geoje Yaho!", became one of the biggest memes of this spring.
Following this, 'LOVE ATTACK' saw a rapid rise in rankings, entering the top tier of the chart, and Rescene achieved a No. 1 hit with the song two years and four months after their debut.
Rescene's new song 'Pretty Girl,' released at 6:00 p.m. yesterday, is also gaining momentum, ranking 6th on the Melon 'Top 100' chart as of 9:00 a.m. today (July 9).
The agency stated that 'Pretty Girl' is a remake of Kara's hit song of the same name, which preserves the melody line of the original while adding a grittier sound to make the melody even more distinct.
