Released on October 13, “Blue Valentine” initially debuted at modest positions (#107 on Genie and #73 on Melon), but climbed to #1 on both platforms within a week, demonstrating the group’s growing fanbase strength and the song’s infectious appeal.
In their acceptance speech, the members expressed gratitude, saying “We’re so thankful to NSWER for cheering us on during today’s live stage, and we’d also like to thank all the staff members for their dedication and support.” Their sincerity resonated deeply with fans celebrating this well-deserved victory.

The stage highlighted LE SSERAFIM’s signature powerful choreography and the BTS member’s contribution to their latest release.
MAMAMOO’s Hwasa performed “Good Goodbye,” demonstrating the solo artistry that’s made her one of K-pop’s most respected vocalists. Her commanding stage presence and emotional delivery captivated viewers, proving why she remains a force in the industry.
BOYNEXTDOOR continued promoting their latest tracks, while DKB showcased their dynamic performance skills that have steadily built their fanbase. According to Soompi, these mid-tier groups benefit significantly from Music Bank’s platform, gaining exposure that drives career momentum.
Why “Blue Valentine” Resonates
NMIXX’s title track from their first full album combines dreamy synth-pop elements with the group’s signature vocal prowess. The music video surpassed 30 million views in eight days, setting a new high for NMIXX and demonstrating broader public interest beyond their dedicated fanbase.
The song’s success represents more than chart positions—it validates NMIXX’s artistic evolution and JYP Entertainment’s patience in developing their unique sound. The group has consistently experimented with genre-blending approaches, and “Blue Valentine” finally achieved the commercial breakthrough matching their critical acclaim.
The Competition: TWS’s Strong Showing
Despite coming in second, TWS’s “OVERDRIVE” scored impressively with 11,549 points, making the competition remarkably close. The narrow margin demonstrates both groups’ strong current momentum and competitive fanbase engagement that makes weekly music show battles exciting.
NMIXX’s Journey to Success
This third win for “Blue Valentine” marks a significant milestone in NMIXX’s career trajectory. The group faced initial challenges establishing their musical identity in a crowded market, but their persistence and artistic integrity are now paying dividends.
NMIXX became the first JYP Entertainment girl group since TWICE’s “More & More” in June 2020 to top Melon’s Top 100 chart, highlighting the achievement’s historical significance within their agency’s roster.
Previous chart performances showed steady growth: “Love Me Like This” peaked at No. 4, “See That?” reached No. 25, and “Young, Dumb, Stupid” hit No. 29—each release building toward “Blue Valentine’s” breakthrough success.
What’s Next for NMIXX
With three wins already secured and strong digital performance continuing, NMIXX looks poised for additional music show victories in coming weeks. Their promotion cycle for “Blue Valentine” along with b-side “SPINNIN’ ON IT” keeps them visible across multiple platforms, sustaining momentum that could extend their winning streak.
The group’s first full album success also sets positive precedent for future releases, proving NMIXX has established themselves as consistent chart contenders rather than one-hit wonders.
