After rising to the top as the best-selling K-Pop girl group of all time in first-week album sales last week, aespa have now officially wrapped up the full, first-week album sales count for their 3rd mini album, 'My World'. 

According to SM Entertainment on May 15 KST, aespa's 'My World' has officially recorded a total of 1,698,784 copies in first-week sales based on the Hanteo chart count, from its initial release on May 8 through its seventh day of sales on May 14. 

With this, aespa have now bested the record previously held by NCT 127 for the highest first-week sales of an album by an SM Entertainment artist in history. NCT 127's 4th full album, '2 Baddies', held a first-week sales record of 1,547,595 copies total. 

Are you impressed by aespa's "Spicy" comeback yet?

Considering SM has always given absolute priority to its boy groups over its girl groups this definitely an incredible accomplishment in bringing justice to ignored groups like f(x)
