The rookie quartet's first album, 'COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES,' has impressively landed at number 65 on the U.S. Apple Music Top Albums chart, marking a significant achievement for a debut K-pop act. By September 11th, the album had also surged on the iTunes Top Albums chart, climbing from 88th to a remarkable 32nd place.
