JYP’s new girl group NiziU has topped Japan’s Oricon music chart with its debut album. 

The nine-member group’s debut single album is called “Step and a Step.” It was released on Dec. 2 and ranked No. 1 on the Oricon daily CD single chart. 

The group’s pre-debut track “Make You Happy” has taken over Japanese music charts since its release in June, reaching No. 1 on the Oricon weekly albums sales chart even before the group’s debut.
