Girls’ Generation sweeps music charts with “I Got a Boy”

Girls’ Generation makes a successful return with a new song, “I Got a Boy.”

There is no sign of waning in the popularity of Korea’s most popular girl group Girls’ Generation.

The nine girls of Girls’ Generation took back the stage with the release of their fourth album, “I Got A Boy.”

Since the comeback with the new title track song, the girl group has been receiving positive reactions with its music video posted on the official SM Town channel of YouTube, viewed 350,000 times in a single day. The music video now has over 2,200,000 hits, making the girl group the first K-pop singers to get that many hits in such a short period of time. Such an explosive reaction to “I Got a Boy” clearly shows that the starlets still have a strong fan base.

Earning the top spots on many music charts, Girls’ Generation proves that it remains Korea’s best girl group. Billboard praises ”I Got a Boy” as “one of the most forward-thinking lead pop singles heard in any country,” saying that the song satisfies listeners with a combination of forward-thinking EDM (electronic dance music), classic and modern R&B, ‘80s new wave, and more, in an article titled “Girls’ Generation, ‘I Got A Boy’: Track-By-Track Review.”
