BOYNEXTDOOR achieves 4 consecutive million-seller albums and Japan

From Billboard to Japanese Charts, Unstoppable Million-Seller Momentum

BOYNEXTDOOR is continuing its upward momentum in the global music market with their first full-length album 'HOME'. This new release recorded 1,085,715 copies in first-week sales (Hanteo Chart), marking their fourth consecutive million-selling streak from their 3rd to 5th mini-albums.

Their performance in the US market is also solid. They broke their career high by reaching number 16 on the US main album chart 'Billboard 200' as of June 27. With this, BOYNEXTDOOR has successfully entered the Billboard charts for six consecutive releases.

The response in the Japanese market has also emerged. The first full-length album 'HOME' ranked 2nd on the Oricon monthly album ranking for June. During the month of June, it achieved 170,902 sales in Japan alone, the highest ranking among K-pop artists tallied during the same period. The title track 'VIRAL' was the only song released in June to make it onto the Melon monthly chart and was also adopted as the official cheering song for the professional baseball team LG Twins.

This album 'HOME' contains the experiences and emotions of the members who have grown from trainees to 'boys next door' after their debut. All members directly participated in the song-making process.

Sold Out Shows in Seoul and Busan, Embarking on a 24-City World Tour

The album's success has led to sold-out performances. BOYNEXTDOOR will meet global fans through their first world tour, 'BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR ‘KNOCK ON Vol.2’'. The Seoul performances will be held at the KSPO DOME from the 17th to the 19th. As soon as pre-sales began on the 22nd of last month, all three shows were sold out.

The Busan performances also recorded a sell-out. The Busan shows, held for three days from July 31 to August 2 at the Sajik Indoor Gymnasium, saw the additional first show (July 31) tickets quickly sell out as well. Both Seoul and Busan have had all three shows completely sold out.

This tour will consist of 35 performances across 24 cities. Starting with Seoul and Busan, the tour will pass through 6 Japanese cities (Kanagawa, Saga, Osaka, Miyagi, Nagano, Chiba), 10 North American regions (Dallas, Pompano Beach, Chicago, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, etc.), and 6 Asian cities (Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Hong Kong, etc.).

The six members—Sungho, Riwoo, Myung Jaehyun, Taesan, Leehan, and Woonhak—completed a solo tour of 23 performances in 13 cities last year. They also performed on the 'Lollapalooza Chicago' stage. BOYNEXTDOOR is expected to showcase the stage capabilities they have accumulated during this tour.
