PLAVE's latest song "Dash" has caused a sensation by entering Billboard's prestigious 'Global 200' chart, making history as the first virtual idol group since the iconic K/DA's hit "More" in 2020.

In an exciting update for the week of February 22, "Dash" made an impressive debut at #195 on the 'Global 200' chart, marking a remarkable milestone for the virtual K-pop boy band. The group's talent shone bright as four songs from their acclaimed third mini album 'Caligo Pt.1' also secured spots on the Billboard's 'Global Excl. U.S.' chart. Among them, "Dash" claimed a spot at #89, followed by "Rizz" at #111, "Chroma Drift" at #115, and "Island" at #128.

This remarkable achievement by PLAVE on the 'Global 200' chart signifies a remarkable breakthrough for virtual idol groups, with the last entry being K/DA's track "More" back in November 2020. K/DA, crafted by Riot Games featuring voices of (G)I-DLE's Miyeon and Soyeon, Madison Beer, and Jaira Burns, captivated audiences with their extraordinary performances.

Furthermore, PLAVE's third mini album 'Caligo Pt.1' set a new record as the most-streamed album on Melon within 24 hours of its release, amassing a staggering 11 million streams. Not stopping there, PLAVE swiftly earned a spot in Melon's exclusive 'Billions Club,' a feat accomplished in record time for a Korean artist. And to top it off, the virtual idol group cemented their status by joining the prestigious 'Million-Seller' club, selling over 1 million copies of 'Caligo Pt.1' within the first week.

The rise of PLAVE has undoubtedly captivated fans worldwide, marking a new chapter in the realm of virtual idol groups.
