The KATSEYE Gabriela Billboard Hot 100 No. 22 Breakthrough
The track's ascent to No. 22 is a testament to the group's sustained momentum in the U.S. market. Unlike many tracks that fade after a few weeks, "Gabriela" has shown incredible longevity, staying on the chart for 24 consecutive weeks. This rise is fueled by consistent streaming numbers and growing radio airplay across North America.

Adding to the celebration, KATSEYE's previous hit "Gnarly" has officially re-entered the Hot 100. Having two tracks on the most competitive music chart in the world simultaneously cements the group's status as a formidable force in the global pop scene, bridging the gap between K-pop's systematic training and Western pop appeal.
