4. Up & Down [Single]
Up & Down is another single from EXID. It was released on August 27, 2015. The single made headlines for its belated chart run — after initial mediocre success, the song started charting three months after its debut. The late success of the single was attributed to a fan-cam video of member Hani performing the song, which went viral across Korean social media networks in late November.
Up & Down debuted at number 94 on the Gaon Domestic Singles Chart, before falling off the chart the following week. However, in the week of 16 November 2014, the song entered the Gaon Overall Singles Chart at number 34 due to its belated popularity, remaining in top five for the following three weeks before topping the chart for the week of 28 December 2014. Since its release, the song has sold over 1.7 million digital copies in South Korea, and becoming the group’s first million-selling hit single.
