LE SSERAFIM Claims Oricon No.1 with ‘SPAGHETTI’: What This Means for K-Pop in Japan

K-pop sensation LE SSERAFIM has clinched the top spot on Japan’s Oricon Weekly Singles Chart with their first domestic single, “SPAGHETTI.”

Source Music, the group’s agency, announced on February 10th, “SPAGHETTI has secured the number one position on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.” The agency added, “The single continues to receive unwavering support even three months after its October release. This marks a significant milestone as the first foreign female act to top this chart in three years.”

This isn’t LE SSERAFIM’s first rodeo with the Oricon charts. The group previously dominated the Weekly Singles Chart with their Japanese debut single “FEARLESS” in 2023, and now they’ve replicated that success with “SPAGHETTI.”

Looking ahead, LE SSERAFIM is slated to perform at Japan’s premier music festival, Summer Sonic 2024, this August.
