BOYNEXTDOOR's 'HOME' hits #2 on Oricon monthly chart with 170K Japan sales
BOYNEXTDOOR's debut full-length album hit 1.08M first-week copies on Hanteo and cracked the Billboard 200 at no. 16—their best chart position yet.
HOME, BOYNEXTDOOR's first full-length album, ranked 2nd on the Oricon June monthly album chart. It was the highest position any K-pop act reached on that chart during the period. Released on June 8, the album moved 170,902 copies in Japan across the month.
First-week sales on Hanteo hit 1,085,715 copies. HOME became a million-seller and marked BOYNEXTDOOR's fourth consecutive million-selling release.
The album entered the Billboard 200 dated June 27 at no. 16—a career-best for the group and their sixth straight charting entry on that chart.
Title track VIRAL was the only song released in June to appear on Melon's monthly chart. It also became the official cheering song for KBO club LG Twins. (Six members—Seongho, Liu, Myungjae Hyun, Taesan, Ihan, and Woonhak—wrote songs on the album for the first time.)
BOYNEXTDOOR launches their first world tour with 'BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR 'KNOCK ON Vol.2' IN SEOUL' at Seoul KSPO DOME, running July 17–19. All three shows sold out immediately after advance tickets went on sale June 22.
