On October 9th, QWER took 1st place on MBC M, MBC every1's Show Champion with their mini-album Algorithm's Blossom’s title track, My Name is Malguem.

This win, achieved 358 days after their debut, is especially notable as QWER secured the top spot without even appearing on the show, a rare and impressive accomplishment.

It demonstrates both the musical quality and widespread popularity of the group.

Through their agency, QWER shared their thoughts: "We’re so grateful for this precious gift of a music show win," they said, adding, "Thanks to all the love for My Name is Malguem, we’ve been having such happy days." They also expressed their future goals: "We’ll work even harder so our music can reach more people."

My Name is Malguem carries a hopeful message about overcoming pain and moving forward.

Its upbeat yet sentimental melody is characteristic of QWER’s style. The song has also been praised for the collaboration with (G)I-DLE's Soyeon, who participated in writing, composing, and arranging, creating a special synergy with QWER.
