ATEEZ has received a great reception in the international market with their latest single, “BAD.” The idols became a notorious being on diverse platforms, including TikTok, for their iconic dance challenge, which quickly became one of the most popular trends in 2026.
Despite the idols not seeing the success coming in their career, the song became a summer hit within days. Surprisingly, ATEEZ’s San didn’t expect the popularity that “BAD” would bring to the boyband.
On September 13, a new episode of SBS’s ‘Running Man’ was broadcast with the special participation of SAN returning to the show after five years. The idol received a warm reception before performing the choreography that helped turn “BAD” into a major hit worldwide.
“I thought our fans would really like it, but I didn’t expect the general public to enjoy it as well.”
