MINO’s ‘FIANCÉ’ at No. 1 on Music Charts for 10 Days… Begins Prolonged Rule
[헤럴드POP=고승아 기자] MINO began his prolonged rule on music charts with his song ‘FIANCÉ’.
As of today (5th) at 9 AM, the title song ‘FIANCÉ’ from MINO’s first album ‘XX’ was placed at no. 1 on major real-time charts including Genie, Oleh, Bugs, Soribada, and Melon, which is Korea’s largest music platform. The song is firmly maintaining its top position for 10 days, since the album’s release last month on the 26th.
MINO did not stop at being placed at no. 1 on real-time and daily charts, but also conquered weekly charts as a solo artist. The song dominated no. 1 spots on 6 different weekly charts for the first week of December (11/26~12/2), continuing MINO’s hot streak.
The song ‘FIANCÉ’ samples a popular song from the 70s titled ‘Soyanggang Maid’, combining the genre of Hip-Hop and Trop. The fresh combination of Hip-Hop and Trot is creating renewed waves in the K-Pop scene.
Furthermore, the MV for ‘FIANCÉ’ surpassed 18 million views on YouTube, receiving steady support from the viewers. The MV for ‘FIANCÉ’ directed by Seo Hyunseung grabbed the viewers’ attention with MINO acting as a king who desires and longs for the one he misses. US Billboard has favorably reviewed the video by writing, “The fact that the MV was inspired by traditional Korean culture and beauty is impressive”.
In addition, as the MV for WINNER’s ‘REALLY REALLY’ is about to reach 100 million views on YouTube, WINNER, the group MINO is part of, is about to set the milestone of reaching ‘100 million views’ for the first time.
MINO will present his powerful performances through MBC ‘Show! Music Core’ and SBS ‘Inkigayo’ on the 8th and 9th, following up his performances on music broadcasts last week.
