Popular idol group ENHYPEN has reached the top of Billboard's main albums chart, the Billboard 200, cementing its status as a bona fide global top-tier group.
According to Belift Lab on the 31st, ENHYPEN's new album, "The Sin: BLISS," debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's main albums chart, announced on the 30th. The group recorded 98,000 units over the week, demonstrating its formidable influence in the U.S. music market. Physical album sales accounted for 92,000 copies, once again highlighting the strength of its deeply rooted local fan base.
ENHYPEN's No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 marks a thrilling achievement six years after its debut. Since landing at No. 18 on the chart with its debut release, "Border: Carnival," ENHYPEN has charted a total of 10 albums on the Billboard 200, setting a remarkable record. After racing to within reach of the top spot with its second full-length album and seventh mini album, which both peaked at No. 2, the group has finally claimed Billboard's crown with its new release.

This album drew particular attention from the public and critics because it was ENHYPEN's first release since the group reorganized as a six-member act. Despite the major change, the group showed unwavering popularity and opened a successful second chapter.
The group's performance on South Korea's album charts was equally impressive. "The Sin: BLISS" sold 2.09 million copies in its first week, according to Hanteo Chart. That surpassed the figure for its previous release, "The Sin: VANISH," to set the group's highest first-week sales record.
The group also posted notable results in the global music market. "Bloody Paradise," the album's lead single, entered Spotify's "Weekly Top Songs Global" chart at No. 59, the highest ranking in the group's history and a new milestone. ENHYPEN has begun its takeover of the Billboard charts and is captivating the global music market, fueling worldwide anticipation for its continued rapid rise.
