New Jeans' "Ditto" was named one of the "2020s Best Songs" by the American music magazine Paste.
Paste recently released "The 100 Best Songs of the 2020s So Far" and named Newzins' "Ditto" at No. 23. "Ditto" is the only K-pop on the list, which features works by global pop stars such as Billie Eilish, SZA, Fiona Apple, and The 1975.
"Considering the current state of K-pop in the 2020s, no group has emerged as rapidly as Newzins, and "Ditto" is one of the best songs," Paste said of Newzins' "Ditto" and explained, "Ditto" is a representative work that perfectly shows Newzins' position in the genre they are pioneering and their explosive star quality."
Released on December 19, 2022, the song features a cozy melody and warm vocals from New Jeans. With "Ditto," Newzins entered the U.S. Billboard main song chart "Hot 100" and the U.K. official single "Top 100" six months after its debut. Melon, a major domestic music site, topped the annual chart in 2023 by recording a milestone of 99 consecutive days on the daily chart and 14 consecutive weeks on the weekly chart.
