fromis_9 has achieved a new best in album sales!
On June 5 KST, the girl group returned with their long-awaited first full-length album, 'Unlock My World,' featuring the title song "#Menow."
According to the data released by Hanteo, the album recorded 83,741 copies sold on its first day. This means that fromis_9 has broken its own record in first-day album sales as their fifth mini-album, 'from our Memento Box,' sold a little over 80,000 copies on its first day.
Congratulations to fromis_9 on their successful comeback!

3,000 more copies sold than last time, when the new album has a lot more versions for fans to collect than before. That's actually a decline in pre-order buyers. Which isn't good news for spending on their MVs etc in future on a business spreadsheet unless there's a major post release bump.

Looking at it purely from a numbers POV. Good luck to them, but it's an uphill battle now to prove they are still worth it to the company compared to the constant "million sellers" that get the same amount of versions.
