IVE has once again showcased their incredible market dominance, setting new sales benchmarks with their latest EP in record time. Their much-awaited comeback was marked by the release of “I’VE MINE” and its standout final title track, “Baddie,” on October 13.
The figures speak for themselves. In less than four days since its release, “I’VE MINE” skyrocketed past 1 million sales, with Hanteo Chart confirming a sales count of over 1.1 million copies by October 16. This rapid sales velocity makes it IVE’s quickest album to cross the coveted million sales milestone.
And the records don’t stop there. Even with three days remaining in its debut week, the EP has already outperformed IVE’s prior first-week sales record, established by their debut full-length album “I’ve IVE” earlier in the year.
Highlighting the significance of this achievement, IVE now stands alongside aespa as one of the only two girl groups in Hanteo’s storied history to record 1 million first-week sales for multiple albums. This puts them in a distinctive league, emphasizing their growing influence in the music industry.
