Obviously not, but they're doing 240k in the US which is quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 So 1.3 million in the first 3.5 hours of the first day and 700k for the rest of the days (4 days and 20.5 hours) Great numbers but they are really frontloaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're lucky to keep it going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feanor Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Do they really have this many fans or is it just fans buying multiple copies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If their fans can make them sell out stadiums, break YouTube records, have a song that's Top 3 on Global Spotify, etc. why is this surprising? And I'm sure some of the obsessed ones buy multiple copies, but so do fans of pop girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These aren't even the real numbers anyway so it's kinda pointless. They're probably looking at 3 million first week, but we won't know because the charts are monthly.

They've gotten 500k in pure physical catalog sales in the first 3 months of the year. I don't think their last album has left the bb200 top 50 and that was released in august.

Very front loaded You better learn about BTS. their last 2 albums debuted at 1Million and double their sales during their chart run in Korea. i don’t think any of their last 4 albums has left the Korean chart yet... smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
