NewJeans’ Right Now has just crossed 100 million streams on Spotify, turning a Japanese B-side into the group’s 16th track to hit the milestone and confirming that every song in their catalog is now a 100 million-stream track.
As of Sunday in mid-July 2026, according to Spotify data reported in Korea, the group is still emerging from lawsuits, an injunction, a temporary rebrand, and a member’s exit, yet their streaming curve keeps rising.
Right Now completes NewJeans’ 16-for-16 streaming sweep
Spotify figures cited in recent reports show Right Now surpassing 100 million plays as NewJeans’ 16th song to clear the mark, which means every officially released track across their EPs and single projects has now joined the 100 million club.
It caps a Spotify tally of more than 7.8 billion streams overall, with older hits like Ditto and OMG sitting around the 900 million mark, Super Shy over 800 million, Hype Boy past 700 million, and other tracks comfortably above 200 to 500 million.
How a Japanese B-side turned into a global favorite
Released on June 21, 2024 as the B-side to their Japanese debut single Supernatural, Right Now was designed for the Japan market, blending smooth drum-and-bass and jungle-influenced beats with the airy, understated vocals that have come to define NewJeans’ sound.
The track entered Billboard’s Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, and its music video, a collaboration with The Powerpuff Girls and artist Takashi Murakami, trended on YouTube’s music rankings in countries from Korea and Japan to the United States, Canada, Australia, France, and the United Kingdom.
That pop-art universe of Powerpuff avatars and Murakami flowers matched with NewJeans’ breakbeat-driven production helped a non-title track in Japanese quietly grow into a comfort-stream favorite, strong enough to keep climbing even without a traditional comeback around it.
Streaming proof of power amid HYBE and ADOR turbulence
The 100 million mark arrives while NewJeans remain tangled in a dispute between their label ADOR and parent company HYBE. HYBE opened an audit into ADOR and producer Min Hee jin in April 2024, alleging misconduct; Min fired back with accusations of unfair treatment, and by late 2024 the members had publicly claimed they were ending their ADOR contracts.
A Seoul court granted ADOR an injunction in March 2025 blocking independent activities, after which the group briefly used the name NJZ and announced a hiatus; a later ruling confirmed their contracts run to 2029, the members returned to ADOR in November 2025, and that December the label terminated Danielle’s contract and sued her, her mother, and Min for about 43.1 billion won.
Korea’s Fair Trade Commission has since launched an investigation into HYBE and ADOR over Danielle’s complaint about contract penalties, while the company says Hanni, Haerin, and Hyein are active as NewJeans and Minji’s return is under “positive discussion.” With Haerin and Hyein recently spotted together in the United States, the quiet march of Right Now to 100 million streams suggests that whenever a full comeback finally happens, the global audience will be ready.
