Five-member virtual boy group B THE HOOD is achieving consecutive success on Asian and global charts with its first mini album 'THE REAL DEAL' and title track 'CHOP!'.

First, the debut mini album 'THE REAL DEAL' reached as high as No. 2 on Apple Music Thailand's Dance Album Daily Chart. It also ranked high on charts in several Asian countries, including No. 8 in Japan, No. 69 in Malaysia, No. 79 in Hong Kong, and No. 119 in South Korea. On iTunes Thailand, it reached No. 58 on both the All-Genre Album and Music Album Daily Charts.

The title track 'CHOP!' is also making notable strides. The song took No. 3 on Apple Music Hong Kong's Hip-Hop/Rap Song Daily Chart, receiving an enthusiastic response from local fans. It also newly entered YouTube Korea's Weekly Top 100 Chart at No. 73, standing out in both music streaming and video categories.

The pre-released track 'JADED' is continuing its popularity as well. The song recorded No. 1 on YouTube Shorts Daily and No. 5 on Trending Music Videos Daily, and has ranked in the Top 100 of the YouTube Music Weekly Chart for two consecutive weeks. Its domestic popularity is spreading to overseas fandoms.

B THE HOOD has drawn attention from global K-POP listeners with hip-hop dance tracks that capture the members' breath and texture rather than artificial machine sounds, and street visual performances utilizing high-end real-time rendering technology.

An official from the group's agency, Levels, said, "Thanks to the support of fans at home and abroad for our official debut album and title track, we were able to achieve meaningful results on major global charts including Thailand, Japan, and Hong Kong," adding, "We will expand our connections with global fans through B THE HOOD's unique music, technological production, and diverse communication content."

Meanwhile, the music video for B THE HOOD's title track 'CHOP!' and all album tracks are available on various music streaming platforms and the group's official YouTube channel.
