JISOO's solo debut has emerged as one of the most triumphant solo launch by a K-pop/Korean artist, as she consistently breaks new records and widens her existing ones across major music platforms.
Now, JISOO has demonstrated her dominance in the Chinese market, one of the most challenging arenas for South Korean artists to make their mark, due to the country's stringent policies and logistics.
Specifically, JISOO's solo album "ME" has crossed the remarkable milestone of 1,000,000 digital sales in China, becoming the first single to achieve this feat in 2023. This accomplishment further attests to JISOO's soaring popularity and the universal appeal of her music.
