Late at night on April 5th, a topic about Baby Monster’s first week album sales was posted on the domestic forum theqoo, attracting a lot of attention with over 200 comments.
Notably, Baby Monster’s new album sold 217,000 copies as of the 4th and added 115,000 copies in 5 days, citing initial sales (still tracking).
As a result, the girl group is currently ranked second in terms of female idol debut album sales, surpassing New Genes, and just behind Illit with two days of tracking left.
While this achievement is admired by many, it also raises questions among netizens who wonder when Baby Monster became so popular.
Here are some thoughts on the aforementioned topic:
- How do they sell so many? Yang Hyun-suk will cheer you on.
- It’s really strange to see such high numbers from the debut album…
- I’ve only listened to “BATTER UP”, but it feels like 2NE1’s music is old fashioned.
- Why is everyone so bitter??? Accept the fact that BABYMONSTER is hugely popular
- Despite already winning the Rookie of the Year award, he changed his debut date for the sake of the press game…
- Congratulations Baby Monster. People who are angry and jealous should go away.
