QWER, a rising K-pop band, solidified its presence in the mainstream music scene. On November 16, the group won the Best Band Award at the 2024 Korea Grand Music Awards (KGMA), held at Inspire Arena in Incheon.
Expressing Gratitude and Performing Iconic Tracks
The band expressed their joy, stating they were honored to attend the ceremony and even happier to win the award. They thanked their fans for continuous support. During the event, the four members of QWER wore all-black suits and performed their hit tracks, “Fake Idol” and “T.B.H.” Their stage began in the audience area, transitioning to the main stage, where they filled the space alongside dancers. The megaphone performance during “T.B.H” was a highlight, receiving enthusiastic responses from the audience.
Chart Success with Consecutive Hits
This year, QWER gained significant success with their tracks “T.B.H” and “My name is Malguem.” The former remained in the top rankings of Melonâs monthly chart and YouTube Musicâs weekly chart for seven consecutive months. Meanwhile, “My name is Malguem” achieved third place on Melonâs October monthly chart and stayed in the YouTube Music Top 5 for seven weeks.
QWER and KGMA Spark Online Discussions
QWERâs rising popularity extended internationally. They showcased their appeal at “Wonderlivet 2024,” Koreaâs first large-scale J-pop festival. On the MLBPARK community, fans celebrated QWERâs achievements. However, some expressed doubts about PLAVEâs omission from the band category, despite leading in votes. Critics questioned KGMAâs decision to categorize PLAVE as a band due to their band-concept sound. The KGMAâs perceived mismanagement led to mixed reactions, but fans agree that QWER has firmly established itself in mainstream music.
