Billboard revealed on June 4 that “Sudden Shower”, featuring the fictional K-drama boy band ECLIPSE from “Lovely Runner”, secured the 199th spot on the ‘Billboard Global 200’ chart.
The ‘Billboard Global 200’ chart is a ranking determined by sales and streaming data exclusively, without including radio airplay scores.

Alongside them, NewJeans with “How Sweet” and “Bubble Gum” grabbed the 15th and 30th positions respectively, and aespa’s hits “Supernova” and “Armageddon” took the 17th and 55th places. The success of “Sudden Shower” emphasizes the popularity of the drama given the challenge in charting so high.
Remarkably, without performing on any actual music shows apart from the drama’s fiction, fans are eager to witness at least one real promotional event post the series’ conclusion last week.

Amidst the buzz, there were unconfirmed murmurings about ECLIPSE, with members Byun Woo-seok, Lee Seung-hyub, Moon Si-on, and Yang Hyuk, possibly performing at KCON hosted by CJ ENM. These speculations were squashed by CJ ENM, much to the disappointment of eager fans.
Still, the enthusiasm around “Lovely Runner” endures, and as the drama’s complete OST launches on the 5th, anticipations for ECLIPSE’s music show appearances are likely to soar.
