TXT posts 1.36M Day‑1 sales
TXT’s latest release sold roughly 1.36 million copies on Day 1, a figure pushed in official K‑pop sales tallies and widely shared on social channels. (x.com) Music data accounts amplified the number as a notable first‑day total while fan and industry threads compared it to other recent big K‑pop launches. (x.com)
Tomorrow X Together opened its new mini album with 1,357,029 copies sold on release day, according to Hanteo Chart’s April 13 daily tally. (mk.co.kr) The album is the group’s eighth mini album, “7TH YEAR: A Moment of Stillness in the Thorns,” released at 6 p.m. Korea time on Monday, April 13, 2026. BIGHIT MUSIC began preorders on March 3 and announced separate physical versions for South Korea, Japan and the United States. (weverse.io 1) (weverse.io 2) Hanteo’s day-one figure put the record at No. 1 on the chart dated April 13 and made it a million seller on arrival. Korean media outlets said the result also gave Tomorrow X Together seven straight releases to clear 1 million in first-week sales. (sports.khan.co.kr) (m.breaknews.com) In K-pop, “day-one sales” usually refers to copies counted by Hanteo from participating retailers in the first day after release, while “first-week sales” tracks the first seven days. Those Hanteo numbers are watched closely because they offer the fastest public read on how much preorder demand turned into counted purchases. (hanteochart.com) (sports.khan.co.kr) The new total is large, but it does not mean every copy has reached every market yet. Weverse’s preorder notice said United States shipping for one version starts on Friday, April 17, four days after the Korea release, which helps explain why early Hanteo totals are driven mainly by Korean distribution. (weverse.io) It also sits below some of the group’s own recent peaks. A Korean sales archive that compiles Hanteo figures lists 1,868,919 first-day copies for “The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION” in January 2023 and 918,413 for “minisode 2: Thursday’s Child” in May 2022. (koreansalestwt.blogspot.com) This comeback lands after a busy stretch for the group. All five members renewed with BIGHIT MUSIC in August 2025, and the group’s fourth world tour ended in February 2026 after 29 shows in 17 cities and regions with about 564,000 attendees. (weverse.io) (biz.chosun.com) The album itself was framed as a seventh-year project that looks back on the group’s run since debut. BIGHIT MUSIC scheduled a comeback showcase at Korea University’s Hwajeong Gymnasium on April 13, the same day the sales count began. (abs-cbn.com) (weverse.io) The next number the industry will watch is the first-week total, which will show whether the release extends Tomorrow X Together’s million-seller streak beyond day one. For now, the clearest fact is that the album crossed 1.35 million counted copies before its first full day was over. (sports.khan.co.kr)
