Kep1er Achieves 2nd-Highest 1st-Week Sales Of Any Girl Group Debut Album In Hanteo History

Kep1er’s debut album is flying off the charts!

Last week, “Girls Planet 999” group Kep1er made their much-awaited debut with their first mini album “FIRST IMPACT” and its title track “WA DA DA.”

According to Hanteo Chart, after setting a new record for the highest first-day sales of any K-pop debut girl group album in Hanteo history, “FIRST IMPACT” went on to sell an impressive total of 206,569 copies in the first week of its release (January 3 to 9).

Not only has Kep1er achieved the highest first-week sales of any group to debut in 2021 or 2022, but they also overtook the previous record set by IVE’s recent debut album to achieve the second-highest first-week sales of any girl group debut album in Hanteo history (bested only by aespa).

Only three other girl groups have ever managed to surpass 100,000 first-week sales with their debut album: BLACKPINK (102,001 copies), aespa (276,877 copies), and IVE (152,229 copies).

Congratulations to Kep1er!
