tripleS sweep Show! Champion and Music Bank with 'Baby Flower' in comeback week
tripleS swept three music show wins within days of dropping ASSEMBLE26 'LOVE & POP' Part 1 on June 1, taking Show! Champion (ep. 600), M Countdown, and Music Bank.
tripleS claimed the top spot on Music Bank on June 12, finishing off a clean sweep of music show wins in the first two weeks since launching ASSEMBLE26 'LOVE & POP' Part 1.
The 24-member group released the album on June 1. First-week sales hit approximately 567,600 copies, and the Baby Flower music video surpassed 30 million views. The title track speaks to girls working through growing pains: "You're not the only one, we're all the same, so let's bloom like flowers now."
On June 10, tripleS performed Baby Flower and B-side Sad Girls Schemin' on the 600th episode of Show! Champion and took first place. "The real protagonist of this award is WAV," the group said while accepting. "We were able to come to this place thanks to WAV." They also thanked the crowd for letting them share the milestone stage. June 11 brought a Music Bank win on M Countdown. The Music Bank victory on June 12 completed the run. Three music show wins in three days for a full-group stage of 24 members—that's a logistical puzzle on its own.
At Music Bank, the group reflected on the album's theme: "Like the meaning of the song where flowers bloom even in difficult situations, the members bloomed flowers with difficulty. We are grateful."
Music Bank's K-Chart weighs digital music at 60%, broadcast count at 20%, K-POP fan voting at 10%, album sales at 5%, and social media at 5%. The show airs every Friday on KBS 2TV and reaches 114 countries via KBS World.
tripleS—Yoon Seoyeon, Jung Hyerin, Lee Jiwoo, Kim Chaeyeon, Kim Yuyeon, Kim Sumin, Kim Nakyung, Gong Yubin, Kaede, Seo Dahyun, Kotone, Kwak Yeonji, Nien, Park Sohyun, Shin Wi, Mayu, Lin, Jubin, Jung Hayeon, Park Sion, Kim Chaewon, Seolrin, Seoa, Jiyeon—plan to keep communicating with fandom WAV through music programs and additional content.
