The album’s strong sales performance reflects the growing demand for physical K-pop releases and the expansion of CORTIS’ global fanbase.

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the week’s best-selling albums based solely on traditional album purchases, excluding streaming activity. The ranking has been tracking pure album sales since 1991 through data compiled by Luminate.
