Most notably, SEVENTEEN has now set the record for the most albums sold in the first week, with over 4.55 million copies sold worldwide in that time.

Here’s a breakdown of their sales numbers for each day in the past week, which also shows their record number sold on the first day of release on April 24 (3.998 million copies).

Since the group debuted in May 2015, they show an almost entirely consistent increase in sales with each of their album releases, with FML far surpassing their past record, which was set with Face the Sun and its 2.07 million copies sold in the first week. In fact, FML more than doubles their past record!
