Seventeen, the South Korean boy band, achieved a significant milestone by topping Melon's Top 100 chart, becoming the first boy band to do so this year with their latest song, "God Of Music."
"God Of Music" serves as the lead track from Seventeen's 11th EP, "Seventeenth Heaven," which was released on a Monday. Historically, domestic music charts have been dominated by girl groups like NewJeans, (G)I-DLE, and IVE, but Seventeen's achievement marks a notable shift in 2023.
