SEVENTEEN‘s celebratory livestream marking their 9th debut anniversary took an unexpected turn, leaving CARATs disappointed despite the group’s expressions of gratitude. Technical glitches and abrupt shutdowns marred the event, prompting speculation about its deletion.
Fans speculated that member Hoshi’s hint at a spoiler might have been the reason. However, despite the initial disappointment, fans later reported the broadcast’s restoration online, salvaging the day’s memories.
On the brighter side, SEVENTEEN’s latest best-of album, “17 IS RIGHT HERE,” achieved remarkable success. Within its first week, it sold over 2,967,937 copies, topping charts globally.
The album’s triumph extended to the Oricon Daily Album Chart in Japan and the Top 100 Albums Chart in LINE. Additionally, it secured the second spot on the Worldwide Albums Chart on iTunes.
Prior to its release, the album garnered significant anticipation, evidenced by its impressive pre-order figures totaling 3,087,613 copies. This anticipation speaks to SEVENTEEN’s enduring popularity and the excitement surrounding their comeback.
Despite the livestream hiccup, SEVENTEEN continues to command attention and accolades, reaffirming its status as a powerhouse in the K-pop industry.
