London: K-pop girl group Katseye has scored its highest ranking yet on Britain's Official Albums Chart, debuting at No. 2 with its latest EP, "Wild."
According to Yonhap News Agency, the U.S.-based group's third EP entered the Official Albums Chart Top 100 at No. 2, as per the latest chart released on Friday (British time). This achievement marks a significant rise from the group's previous best, a No. 55 peak with their second EP, "Beautiful Chaos," released last year.

Meanwhile, "Hootie Frutti," the main track of the new EP, and "Bel Air," another track from the album, debuted at No. 16 and No. 97, respectively.
"Wild," released on August 14, delves into themes of embracing one's inner self while seeking instinct and freedom. The album's creation saw contributions from prominent figures such as Hybe Chairman Bang Si-hyuk, British pop star Ed Sheeran, and producers Omer Fedi and Blake Slatkin.
