At the same time, they are also among the only six K-pop boy bands who managed to hit No.1 on the chart. Instated on August 2021, so far BTS, BIGBANG, SEVENTEEN, EXO, NCT Drean, and PLAVE have a No.1 on MelOn’s Top 100.
Congratulations PLAVE!
On February 26, 2024, PLAVE made their highly-anticipated comeback with their 2nd EP Asterum: 134-1 and WAY 4 LUV serving as its title track.
Watch the MV here:
On the work front, on August 20, PLAVE released their latest digital single Pump Up The Volume!, a rock-infused K-pop track leaning into the rollicking sound heard in K-drama OSTs.
Within 24 hours of its release, the song managed to garner over 1.83 million streams on MelOn, becoming the most-streamed 2024 track to achieve the feat. With this, the virtual boy group also surpassed IU’s Love wins all.
Pump Up The Volume! starts with a narration from GOT7’s Youngjae who takes the listeners on a journey to the land of Terra. Although the lack of real visuals in the music video somehow puts PLAVE at a disadvantage, the group makes up for it with their soulful vocals.
The retro-esque music video combined with Western-inspired style delivers a vibrant summer camping vibe, capturing the fresh and captivating charm of the band.
