NewJeans' hit track 'Supernatural' has crossed the 200 million streams mark on Spotify, marking a significant milestone for the group.

NewJeans has achieved a remarkable feat as their track 'Supernatural' has surpassed 200 million streams on Spotify, according to their agency Ador. This achievement makes 'Supernatural' the group's 12th song to reach this streaming milestone. Released in June last year as the title track of their debut single in Japan, 'Supernatural' has continued to captivate audiences worldwide.

The physical single also saw impressive sales, with over 1 million copies sold.

This achievement underscores NewJeans' growing influence in the global music scene and their ability to connect with fans across different markets.
