Soobin revealed that he had initially found it unbelievable that TXT’s international fame had grown so much.In 2021, TXT was notably the only Korean artist to make it onto both Rolling Stone’s and NME’s respective best albums of 2021 lists.

The group had also appeared on Billboard’s year-end list of Best K-pop songs with ‘0X1=LOVESONG (I Know I Love You)’.“At first, it didn’t feel real, and I couldn’t believe it,” he shared, as translated by Soompi. “Since we haven’t been able to go on tour, there was no way for me to feel our growth [in terms of our fandom].

But due to these kinds of results, I became confident that the path we’re taking is the right one.”“It made me feel proud and happy,” added the TXT leader.
