On its very first day of availability, the mini album surpassed expectations by moving more than 660,000 physical copies worldwide.

This single-day surge immediately eclipse Yeonjun’s personal best record established just last year with his debut solo release.

As reported by Hanteo Chart, the official metrics tracker for album sales in South Korea, the incredible first-day momentum carried forward seamlessly throughout the initial tracking period:

“Hanteo Chart has now reported that ‘NO LABELS: PART 02’ went on to sell an impressive total of 738,072 copies in the first week of its release (July 10 to 16).”

This massive tally of 738,072 sales easily shattered his previous record of 601,105 copies, which was set by his first mini album, “NO LABELS: PART 01.”

Achieving such a feat within the first seven days highlights both his growing individual fanbase and the powerful market enthusiasm surrounding his evolving artistic direction and solo identity.

Establishing the Highest First-Week Sales Benchmark for K-Pop Soloists in 2026

Beyond setting a new personal record, Yeonjun’s first-week total holds significant distinction within the wider Korean music ecosystem.

The sheer volume of physical copies sold places the mini album at the very peak of soloist performance metrics for the entire calendar year so far.

According to official industry statistics and Hanteo data evaluation, the achievement represents a major milestone for the year:

“Notably, the figure marks the highest first-week sales of any album released by a Korean soloist thus far in 2026.”

This historic milestone highlights Yeonjun’s undeniable influence as a solo powerhouse alongside his activities with TXT.
