K-pop sensation NMIXX has broken into the U.S. Mediabase Top 40 Radio Chart, marking a significant milestone for the group.

The title track “Blue Valentine” from NMIXX’s debut studio album secured the 38th spot on the prestigious chart for the week of January 4, 2026 (tracking period: January 18-24, 2026).

Mediabase’s Top 40 Radio Chart, which compiles rankings based on airplay data from mainstream U.S. radio stations, is widely regarded as a key barometer of popularity in the North American music market. NMIXX’s entry into the Top 40 is a clear indication that the global acclaim for “Blue Valentine” has successfully translated into tangible success on American mainstream radio.

“Blue Valentine,” released on October 13, 2025, has been dominating major domestic music charts in South Korea. The track topped Melon’s Top 100, daily and weekly charts, and even clinched the number one spot on the November 2025 monthly chart, marking a career-defining moment for NMIXX. This impressive performance has also caught the attention of international media outlets, including Billboard, garnering widespread praise.

Capitalizing on this momentum, NMIXX is gearing up for their world tour, EPISODE 1: ZERO FRONTIER, which promises to catapult the group to new heights. The tour kicks off with a series of solo concerts across major cities: Madrid (March 17), Amsterdam (March 20), Paris (March 22), Frankfurt (March 24), London (March 26), Toronto (March 29), Brooklyn (March 31), National Harbor (April 2), Irving (April 4), Oakland (April 7), and Los Angeles (April 9). The group plans to announce additional tour dates, aiming to connect with an even broader international fanbase.
