NCT Is The First Korean Artists To Top The Billboard Emerging Artist Chart
NCT has been crowned number one on the Billboard Emerging Artists chart, and it’s the first achievement in all of K-Pop!
This achievement means they’ve been deemed the top emerging musical act in the US. NCT has been on the list for six weeks, and sat at #2 last week.
NCT 127 was recently in the U.S. for the Korea Music Festival, and did a round of interviews for American media outlets.
The ensuing reaction online pushed their move to number one on the Billboard Emerging Artists chart.

The latest boy group from SM Entertainment is no stranger to Billboard. They ranked on the Social 50 Chart and World Albums chart!
“NCT ranks at No. 4 on the Social 50 chart, with an 11 percent increase in overall activity. Plus, its first LP, NCT 2018 Empathy, places at No. 15 on World Albums (after reaching No. 5 in March).” — Billboard
Congratulations to NCT on another incredible achievement!
