SEVENTEEN Breaks Record For Highest Stock Pre-Orders Achieved In K-Pop History

Apr 23, 2023

SEVENTEEN is already making history with their upcoming album “FML”!

On April 23, PLEDIS Entertainment announced that SEVENTEEN surpassed 4.64 million stock pre-orders, setting a new K-pop record. Not only does this figure far exceed SEVENTEEN’s previous first-week sales record of 2,067,769 copies set by their fourth studio album “Face the Sun,” but it is also the greatest number of stock pre-orders achieved in K-pop history.

The number of stock pre-orders is the amount of album stock that is produced prior to an album’s release. The figure is the estimated demand calculated using various factors, including how many albums were pre-ordered by fans.

Previously, SEVENTEEN’s album distributor YG PLUS confirmed that the group broke their personal record when they surpassed 2.18 million stock pre-orders in just three days. Earlier on April 13, SEVENTEEN was also confirmed to have surpassed 4 million stock pre-orders, becoming the second artist in history to surpass 4 million stock pre-orders following BTS with their fourth studio album “Map of the Soul: 7” in 2020.

Currently, SEVENTEEN is gearing up to return with their 10th mini album “FML” on April 24 at 6 p.m. KST along with the double title tracks “Super” and “F*ck My Life.”

Congratulations to SEVENTEEN on this historic achievement!
