This is the third time that the ‘LoL World Championship’, also known as ‘Worlds Cup’, is being held in Korea since 2014 and 2018. In particular, the final of this competition, which is broadcast live online, is the largest e-sports festival on earth that attracts attention from all over the world, with a peak simultaneous viewership of 74 million (as of 2021).

New Jeans will take the opening stage to announce the start of the finals and unveil the performance of the ‘2023 LoL World Championship’ theme song ‘GODS’ for the first time. ‘Gods’ is the tenth theme song of the ‘LoL World Championship’ that combines the magnificent sound with Newgenes’ powerful vocals. Among all theme songs, it set a new record for most streaming on Spotify on the first day of release (October 4th) and reached #3 on the US Billboard Global Chart. It is receiving a warm response, appearing on the charts for consecutive weeks.

The opening stage of the ‘LoL World Championship’ finals attracted attention as top artists who sang the theme songs of all time, such as Imagine Dragons and Lil Nas X, appeared. New Jeans became the first complete K-pop group to sing the ‘LoL World Championship’ theme song and even performed on the opening stage of the finals, proving their heightened global influence.

New Jeans plans to heat up the atmosphere of the finals with an overwhelming performance worthy of the magnificent song, and the technical effects from the ‘Gods’ music video will be vividly implemented offline, creating a more lively stage.
