It looks like ‘ATE’ is turning out to be a massive success for Stray Kids. The EP is now the fourth Stray Kids album to sell over three million copies, a feat that was achieved in less than a month!
‘ATE’ Is Next Stray Kids Album to Sell 3 Million Copies
Stray Kids have once again proven their dominance in the K-pop industry by becoming triple-million sellers for the fourth consecutive time. According to Circle Chart (formerly known as Gaon Chart), as of August 15, Stray Kids’ latest mini album ‘ATE’ officially surpassed 3 million sales, solidifying their status as one of the most successful acts in K-pop today.
Released on July 19, ‘ATE’ quickly made waves in the music industry, debuting at No. 1 on both Circle’s monthly and weekly album charts. Remarkably, it took less than a month for the album to reach the 3 million mark, a testament to Stray Kids’ immense popularity and the loyalty of their fanbase, known as STAY. ‘ATE’ is now Stray Kids’ fourth consecutive album to surpass 3 million copies, following the massive successes of ‘MAXIDENT’, ‘★★★★★ (5-STAR)’, and ‘ROCK-STAR’.
The achievements of ‘ATE’ extend beyond South Korea. Billboard previously announced that the album debuted at No. 1 on its prestigious Top 200 Albums chart, making it Stray Kids’ fifth consecutive album to achieve this feat. This accomplishment places them in an elite category, as they are now the first group in Billboard 200 history to have their first five charting albums debut at No. 1. This extraordinary record underscores Stray Kids’ growing influence on the global music stage and their ability to consistently deliver chart-topping hits.
The success of ‘ATE’ reflects the group’s relentless work ethic, innovative music, and deep connection with their fans. With this milestone, Stray Kids continue to break new ground in the music industry, both in South Korea and internationally. Their ability to achieve such remarkable sales and chart performances with each release is a clear indication that Stray Kids are here to stay, continuously pushing the boundaries of what a K-pop group can achieve.
Congratulations to Stray Kids on this impressive achievement, and to their fans who have played an integral role in supporting their journey to the top!
