Leading up to the release of Girls, Aespa sat down for an interview with Billboard News and shared what fans can expect from the new body of work, which WINTER explained has a different energy from any of their previous releases. “I think our mini album ‘Girls’ is the most powerful among all our previously released tracks,” she said. “Both our performance and vocals showcase a dynamic charm, so we hope many people look forward to it.”

While its yet to be determined how Girls will fare on the Billboard 200, the girl group’s first mini album Savage impressively charted at No. 20 on the albums chart following its release in October, which allowed them to simultaneously chart at No. 20 on the Artist 100. “Dreams Come True” hit No. 10 on the Hot Trending Songs chart in December.
