According to their agency, Belief Lab, on the 22nd, ENHYPEN’s eighth mini-album, *THE SIN: BLISS*, sold over 1.77 million copies on the day of its release—the previous day—according to the album sales tracking site Hanteo Chart. With this, ENHYPEN took the No. 1 spot on Hanteo Chart’s daily album chart.
In addition, immediately after its release, the album topped the iTunes Top Album Charts in a total of 23 countries, including Brazil, Japan, Malaysia, and Türkiye, and ranked on charts in 41 countries. On the real-time “Top 100 Albums” chart of the Japanese music platform LINE MUSIC, it rose to No. 2 and has since maintained a position in the upper ranks.
The album’s title track, “Bloody Paradise,” claimed the No. 1 spot on the real-time chart of the Korean music platform Bugs immediately after its release. ENHYPEN successfully “swept” the top six spots on Bugs, with this track and five others occupying positions 1 through 6.
“Bloody Paradise” topped the iTunes Top Songs charts in 13 countries, including Thailand, Argentina, and the Philippines, and entered the charts in a total of 26 countries. On LINE Music’s real-time “Top 100 Songs” chart, it has steadily climbed the ranks since its release and has now settled within the top 10.
“The Shin: Bliss” is an album that unfolds across 10 tracks the journey of a couple who, having broken a taboo and chosen to run away, come to realize that simply being together is a blessing.
“Bloody Paradise” is a Brazilian funk track that likens the situation of a couple—who, even in the midst of crisis, focus solely on each other—to paradise.
N.HYPEN will perform this song live on MBC’s “Show! Music Core” today.
