EXO's Baekhyun Breaks His 1st-Week Sales Record In Just One Day With "Hello, World"

It took EXO’s Baekhyun just one day to smash his personal first-week sales record with his latest solo release!

On September 6 at 6 p.m. KST, Baekhyun made his long-awaited return with his new solo mini album “Hello, World,” marking his first comeback since establishing his own agency.

According to Hanteo Chart, “Hello, World” sold an impressive total of 893,214 copies on its first day of sales alone—managing to break Baekhyun’s previous solo first-week sales record of 868,840 (set by his 2021 mini album “Bambi”) within just one day.

With the rest of the week still left to go, it remains to be seen just how much higher Baekhyun’s personal sales record will climb by the end of September 12.

Additionally, shortly after its release, both “Hello, World” and its title track “Pineapple Slice” shot to the top of iTunes charts in numerous countries all over the world. By the morning of September 7 KST, “Hello, World” had already hit No. 1 on iTunes Top Albums chart in at least 33 different regions, including Argentina, Bahrain, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Fiji, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Malaysia, Mexico, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Oman, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, the Philippines, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam.
