RESCENE Earns First Music Show Win With “Pretty Girl” on The Show

K-pop girl group RESCENE has earned its first music show trophy since debuting in 2024.

RESCENE took first place with its new remake single “Pretty Girl” on the July 14 broadcast of SBS Life’s The Show. The achievement marks an important milestone for the five-member group following the recent chart resurgence of “LOVE ATTACK.”

RESCENE “Pretty Girl” First Music Show Win

RESCENE was announced as the winner of The Show after performing “Pretty Girl,” a remake of KARA’s popular 2008 song.

Members Woni, Liv, Minami, May, and Zena presented a bright performance combining playful expressions, synchronized choreography, and the group’s refreshing energy.

The members became emotional after their name was announced and thanked their fans and everyone who had supported their journey.

RESCENE said they hoped the trophy could give encouragement to people pursuing their dreams. The members also promised to continue working hard and showing their best performances.

 

RESCENE “Pretty Girl” Remake of KARA’s Hit Song

RESCENE released “Pretty Girl” on July 8 as a special remake single.

The original version was released by KARA in 2008 and became known for its upbeat melody, confident message, and memorable choreography. RESCENE preserved the cheerful appeal of the original song while adding its own youthful vocals and modern performance style.

The remake introduced the song to a new generation of K-pop listeners while also appealing to fans familiar with KARA’s original release.

RESCENE “Pretty Girl” Music Chart Results

“Pretty Girl” received a strong response immediately after its release and entered the upper ranks of several major South Korean music charts.

The song reached the following positions during its early chart run:

• No. 1 on Melon HOT100
• No. 4 on Melon TOP100
• No. 1 on Bugs’ real-time chart
• High positions on Genie Music and FLO

Its strong digital performance helped RESCENE secure the group’s first music show victory only days after the single was released.

RESCENE “LOVE ATTACK” Reverse-Charting Success

RESCENE’s first music show win followed the unexpected resurgence of “LOVE ATTACK.”

The track was originally released in August 2024 as a title song from RESCENE’s first mini album, SCENEDROME. Nearly two years after its release, the song climbed to No. 1 on both Melon TOP100 and Melon’s daily chart.

Online attention surrounding Woni’s personal YouTube content helped introduce more listeners to RESCENE. As public interest in the group increased, “LOVE ATTACK” began rising rapidly across domestic music charts.

Other RESCENE songs, including “Pinball,” “Deja Vu,” and “Runaway,” also attracted renewed interest during the group’s chart resurgence.

RESCENE Growth From “LOVE ATTACK” to “Pretty Girl”

RESCENE’s latest achievement is significant because the success of an older song has developed into strong results for a new release.

The group’s recent rise can be summarized through five major milestones:

1. Woni’s online content attracted widespread attention.
2. “LOVE ATTACK” began climbing the Korean music charts.
3. “LOVE ATTACK” reached No. 1 on Melon TOP100.
4. “Pretty Girl” entered the top tier of major music charts.
5. RESCENE earned its first music show trophy on The Show.

This progression suggests that RESCENE’s popularity is expanding beyond a brief viral moment. Listeners who discovered the group through “LOVE ATTACK” have continued supporting its latest release.

 

RESCENE “Pretty Girl” Promotion Plans

RESCENE is expected to continue promoting “Pretty Girl” through Korean music shows and related content.

With a No. 1 music show trophy and multiple songs performing strongly on domestic charts, attention is now turning to the group’s next album and future activities.

The combination of “LOVE ATTACK” becoming a reverse-charting hit and “Pretty Girl” earning RESCENE’s first music show win has established the group as one of the fastest-rising K-pop girl groups of 2026.
