ITZY have set a personal record with their latest album, signaling the group's successful anticipated return!

On July 15 KST, ITZY made their anticipated comeback with the group's 5th mini-album 'CHECKMATE' along with the release of the music video for the title track "Sneakers". According to the Hanteo chart, the album sold a total of 251,509 copies sold on its first day of release.

With this, 'CHECKMATE' has become ITZY's best-selling album in first-day sales. Their recent album almost quadrupled the sales 'Guess Who' had accumulated on the first day of its release (64,119 copies), showcasing the group's growth.

Congratulations to ITZY!

who isn't breaking their own records nowdays? There's a huge inflation going on in Kpop album sales nowadays (and for the last few years)
