The group ENHYPEN has shown strong album power by sweeping major album charts in Japan with their mini album 6.
According to the latest chart announced by Oricon on the 7th (for June 6), ENHYPEN (Jungwon, Heesung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunghoon, Niki)'s mini album 'DESIRE: UNLEASH' sold 275,344 copies immediately upon its local release, going straight to the top of the 'Daily Album Ranking.'
With this achievement, ENHYPEN has topped the Oricon 'Daily Album Ranking' with all 12 albums released to date in Korea and Japan immediately after their release.
In particular, this achievement is more encouraging as it marks the highest first-day sales among all ENHYPEN albums to date. Compared to the first day of sales of their previous work, the regular 2nd album repackage 'ROMANCE: UNTOLD -daydream-', the figure jumped about twofold, proving their enhanced local influence.
Moreover, 'DESIRE: UNLEASH' also dominated the Japanese iTunes 'Top Albums' and Apple Music 'Top Albums' charts immediately after release.
The response to the title track 'Bad Desire (With or Without You)' is also fervent. The song previously topped the major Japanese music platform AWA 'Real-time Rising Music Top 100' and secured a spot in the 'Top 10' of the Oricon 'Daily Digital Single Ranking' (for June 6). The music video has also attracted attention, ranking 6th on the Japanese Line Music 'Music Video Top 100' (for June 6).
Global interest in ENHYPEN's new release is intense. 'DESIRE: UNLEASH' has sold over 1.95 million copies within three days of its release, signaling ENHYPEN's potential to achieve their third 'double-million seller.' 'ENHYPEN's mini album 6 features an impressive organic album structure' (Dazed, UK), 'ENHYPEN continues to challenge itself beyond limits as an artist' (Billboard Philippines), among other foreign media praise.
Since their comeback, ENHYPEN has performed on various music broadcasts, showcasing their high-quality stages as 'performance masters.' They are captivating global fans with the sexy yet urban 'Bad Desire (With or Without You)' and the chill mood of 'Loose (Korean Ver.)'. ENHYPEN will perform their new song on SBS 'Inkigayo' today (8th).
