In the history of K-pop, only a few artists achieved the monumental success of releasing consecutive hit songs.

Recently, Korean netizens revisited three of the biggest hit songs released consecutively in South Korea. These tracks, released between 2007 and 2008, not only defined the second generation of K-pop but also cemented the artist's place as one of the most influential girl groups of all-time.

The three tracks are "Tell Me," "So Hot," and "Nobody," all released by Wonder Girls.

"Tell Me" became a viral sensation with its catchy melody and iconic retro choreography, sparking a dance craze across Korea. "So Hot" followed with its confident and sassy vibe, further showcasing the group's versatility. Then came "Nobody," a global hit that transcended borders and became the first Korean song to enter the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, marking a historic moment for K-pop's expansion into the international market.

Korean netizens have pointed out that no K-pop group has yet surpassed the success of these three iconic tracks released consecutively.

Korean netizens commented:

"I was thinking it would be these three songs."

"I could only think of Wonder Girls when they said it was three consecutive hits."

"I knew it would be 'Tell Me,' 'So Hot,' and 'Nobody' before clicking on this post."

"They were legendary."

"All the people knew about 'Tell Me.' There were so many parodies and covers too."

"Everyone in the nation knew these songs."

"I don't deny that these were the three consecutive hit songs."

"This is true. Only Wonder Girls achieved this."

"Tell Me, So Hot, and Nobody are legendary songs."

"I don't think there would be any K-pop group that can achieve what they did."

"I knew it would be Wonder Girls."
