Stray Kids Are Now The Top-selling K-pop Act In The US

The music scene is dominated by Stray Kids, who have spread their impact from South Korea to the US market. They have surpassed well-known bands like TXT, TWICE, SEVENTEEN, and ATEEZ in terms of pure album sales this year thanks to their outstanding sales performance in the United States. This remarkable accomplishment demonstrates their global appeal and the unwavering support of their fans around the world.

By selling a staggering 281,000 copies of their most recent album, 5-STAR, in the United States in just two weeks, Stray Kids have accomplished an incredible milestone. Given that the album's physical jewel cases have not even been released, this accomplishment is all the more remarkable.

The success of 5-STAR began on Friday, June 2, the day of its release, when it had an enormous impact on South Korea. The album sold an amazing 2,392,666 copies in South Korea alone on that first day, according to the famous Hanteo chart, one of the nation's main music charts.

On the day of its release in South Korea, 5-STAR became only the third album in music history to sell more than two million copies. Stray Kids joins K-pop giants BTS and Seventeen, who both achieved this incredible milestone with their respective albums, in the valued company of this feat.

The Stray Kids' most recent record has made an impact and demonstrated their unquestionable influence on the music industry. Their incredible sales accomplishments in South Korea and the US are proof of their ability to captivate audiences and break records. As this remarkable group consistently pushes limits and sets new benchmarks in their pursuit of musical excellence, enthusiastic fans eagerly anticipate their future projects.
