Wonder Girls back in Korea, on the Billboard Top 100
On the morning of October 22nd, the Wonder Girls were officially back in Korea. Being back in the motherland, The Wonder Girls will greet and meet fans and press alike for the first time in over 7 months.
A JYP Entertainment representative stated, "This Friday we will hold a press conference with The Wonder Girls about their experiences in America, making it on the Billboard Chart, and what's in store for the future."
Speaking of which, the Wonder Girls entered the Billboard Top 100 for the very first time. Their single Nobody is ranked 76th on the Billboard Top 100. With this accomplishment, I believe they have become the very first Korean artist(s) from the motherland to have done so. I say from the motherland, because Korean-American and half-Korean artists such as Joe Hahn of Linkin Park, Amerie, and others have achieved this feat in the past.

As anyone would know, you've hit the US market when you rank on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. Although they ranked at 74, the very fact they are on this chart is a huge deal. This is a wonderful feat!
Not only did they rank on this chart, but also the Heatseekers chart at number 4. Interestingly enough, you're not supposed to be on the Heatseekers chart if you're already on the Billboard Hot 100, so this will be the only time you see them here. (If you're on the Hot 100 chart, you're apparently too big to be on the Heatseekers chart!)
Congratulations to Wonder Girls!
Congratulations to The Wonder Girls and I wish them much continued success, it's also good to see them back home in Korea as well. Thanks to stephen, and jonathan for the tips. Remember to visit the WG Spectacle Forum.
