"Get Up" became the fifth best-selling album in the United States last year, the highest for a K-pop girl group and the highest female act ever since Taylor Swift's "1989 (Taylor's Version)" (2023).

The quintet also landed five tracks — "OMG" (2023), "Ditto" (2022), "Super Shy" (2023), "ETA" (2023) and "Cool With You" (2023) — on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

NewJeans performed at the Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) last year, becoming the first K-pop girl group to do so.

Past honorees include Twice, SZA, Olivia Rodrigo, Cardi B, Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, Madonna, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift.

The upcoming awards show will be at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles next month. Streaming will begin the next day on billboardwomeninmusic.com.

Congratulations, NewJeans!
