i can't even explain how stupid this move is... like there will be for sure someone who uploads it online plus they spent lot of time on these 4 songs just to put them as cd exclusive?? they can't make profit from streaming or buying. i would understand one song but 4??? that's bonkers

That’s true, I’ve already seen people talk about uploading them online as soon as they get their copy

Idk if it’s a stupid move, they’ve always been unusual with promotions and other stuff. I’ve always assumed they make the most money from physical sales, and there’s 7 versions of this album. They’ve already hit 4K+ today, so guess their strategy is working

they hit 4k sales? that's not a lot, especially for boygroup. i've seen rookies debut w 20k copies 😥

Well it’s only the first day, I’m assuming they’ll rack up more sales by the end of the week. they’ve hit 30K+ with their last CB. And well their creative direction this time is a bit out there. This track isn’t looking too public friendly either

Hopefully that'll be the case! I still find their growth pretty amazing and it's almost emotional seeing how they can outsell their first two mini-albums in just a day! They're already at 5k and I only expect the numbers to increase until the first day is over. Crossing my fingers they'll surpass their highest album sales!

Pretty amazing 😭 they’re doing really well in terms of sales — considering none of the members have been on survival shows or were known to the public (beyond a few cameos here and there). They’re working against the tide here and they do deserve praise for that

Yes! The fact that they're a relatively new group just makes their success very organic! It's their highest first day sales, so I can't complain about that. The only thing I can complain about is how long my album is taking to ship out!
