[Edaily Starin YUN GI BACK Reporter] Yeonjun of the group Tomorrow X Together (TXT) has once again set a new career high by recording the highest first-week sales among Korean solo artists this year with his second mini-album. He continues to enjoy consistent success across physical albums, digital tracks, and short-form content, further solidifying his position as a solo artist. According to Hanteo Chart, an album sales tracking site, on the 17th, Yeonjun’s second mini-album “NO LABELS: PART 02” sold a total of 738,072 copies during its first week of release.

Notably, the new album sold over 660,000 copies on its first day alone and topped the weekly album charts based on sales from just three days, signaling strong commercial success. The response to the title track “Ice Cream” has also been enthusiastic. Yeonjun has been receiving rave reviews on music shows and various content platforms for his signature laid-back groove and stylish performances. The choreography, which he helped create himself, maximizes the song’s refreshing vibe and has earned it the title of “Yeonjun’s signature summer song.” In particular, the line “Oh girl, too hot—cool down your heart” is known as the “Girl Too Hot” part and is rapidly spreading, especially on short-form video platforms. As of 10 a.m. on the 17th, over 67,000 videos using the “Ice Cream” track had been uploaded to TikTok, and on Instagram, it ranked second among trending audio clips. The music video is also gaining momentum rapidly.
