What's crazy is put into context Girls Generation sold as much as the others without being a mainstream name in the west. Imagine what it would be like if they had BlackPink levels of YouTube hype a decade ago when Kpop was just "some foreign music" you get laughed at for listening to.

You cannot use Gaon to talk about history. Gaon started tracking chart & sales data in late 2010. SNSD debuted and had most of their physical sales in 2007-2010. So Gaon counts none of that. SNSD would be so on top of this list if you counted their 2007-2010 sales.
