KATSEYE scores career-best No. 2 on British albums chart

K-pop girl group KATSEYE has achieved a career-best ranking of No. 2 on the British Official Albums Chart with their latest EP, Wild. The U.S.-based group's third EP entered the Top 100 at No. 2, marking a significant improvement from their previous peak of No. 55 with the EP Beautiful Chaos. KATSEYE also secured three tracks on the Official Singles Chart Top 100, with pre-release single "Animal" rising to No. 12, and "Hootie Frutti" and "Bel Air" debuting at No. 16 and No. 97, respectively.

The album, released on Aug. 14, delves into the theme of accepting every aspect of one's inner self while embracing instinct and freedom, and was created with the involvement of HYBE Chairman Bang Si-hyuk, British pop star Ed Sheeran, and producers Omer Fedi and Blake Slatkin.
