NCT's LEIA Is Already The Most Successful Female K-Pop Musician Ever December 20, 2022. Written by Kim Shin-byul.
Last summer, LEIA of the band NCT officially embarked on her solo career (without leaving the band that made her a superstar), and in the months that have followed, she has continued to make history left and right on charts all around the world, especially in the U.S. The singer and rapper's first mini-album on her own has proved to be the bigger of the pair she shared with her massive fan base, and now it's made her standout name in the K-Pop field on one very important and competitive ranking in America.
LEIA is now the most successful female K-Pop musician (an artist who is largely known for creating music that can be described as K-Pop) ever on the Pop Airplay chart, Billboard's ranking of the tunes that reach the largest audience at pop radio in America.
The superstar's current focus "God is a woman" and "Position" is steady at No. 14 and No 11, its high point, and it has now lived on the Pop Airplay chart for seven weeks. The tune made history less than a month ago when it became the first track by a solo female K-Pop artist to hit the tally, and it is slowly rising.
LEIA is now the first female K-Pop artist to chart more than one song on the Pop Airplay ranking, and she's managed to do so both on her own and with a group. The other members of NCT are steady with their one win.
