ASTRO has taken another first place trophy with “Candy Sugar Pop”!

On the May 26 broadcast of Mnet’s “M Countdown,” ASTRO’s “Candy Sugar Pop” took first place with 8,434 points against last week’s winner, PSY’s “That That” featuring BTS’ Suga.

After introducing themselves as a group, ASTRO’s leader JinJin started off their acceptance speech by thanking the members of their agency, Fantagio, as well as their hair and makeup stylists. JinJin continued, “More than anything, this week is a very happy week for us and we think we were able to receive this award thanks to AROHA [ASTRO’s official fan club]. As we are holding a concert the day after tomorrow, we will repay our grateful hearts then! Thank you!”

Rocky continued, “We’ve consecutively received an award [this week] and thanks to all the love from AROHA, I think we were able to receive this happy award, so thank you very much. In the future too, we will become an ASTRO that can showcase an even cooler image. Thank you!”
