"Boy in Luv", the most successful, reached the top fifty and sold 200,000 copies.
"I Need U", released in April 2015, reached the top five on the Gaon Digital Chart, as well as number 4 on the Billboard World Digital Songs chart. The group released two more singles in 2015, "Dope" and "Run"; the latter reached the top ten in South Korea. Their fourth Japanese single, "For You", was released on June 17, 2015 and became the group's first number one hit in Japan, topping both the Oricon and Japan Hot 100.[1] The Japanese version of "I Need U" was released in December 2015 and debuted at number one on Oricon.[2] The follow-up Japanese single, "Run", was released on March 15, 2016.
