TWICE are the best selling Korean group in terms of overall sales, ranking at #4 on the artists sales chart. TWICE also have multiple entries in both the top 50 singles chart and the top 50 albums chart, with more than half of the entries for Korean groups in the top 50 albums chart being from them!
