ENHYPEN has clinched their first No. 1 spot on the U.S. Billboard main album chart, a milestone achievement six years after their debut.

Billboard, the renowned American music publication, revealed on August 30 that ENHYPEN’s mini-album THE SIN: BLISS has topped the latest Billboard 200 chart dated September 5.

The album amassed an impressive 98,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. during the tracking period. This total comprises 92,000 in album sales (both physical and digital) and 6,000 in streaming equivalent album units.

ENHYPEN first broke into the Billboard 200 in 2021 with their second mini-album BORDER: CARNIVAL, which debuted at No. 18. This latest release marks their tenth album to chart, with their last seven consecutive albums landing in the top 10.

While their previous peak was No. 2 – achieved by both their second studio album ROMANCE: UNTOLD and seventh mini-album THE SIN: VANISH – this new mini-album has finally propelled them to the coveted top spot.

According to the Hanteo Chart, THE SIN: BLISS sold a staggering 2,099,048 copies in its first week. This release, the group’s first as a six-member ensemble following Heeseung’s departure, has become ENHYPEN’s fifth album to surpass two million in sales.

The title track “Bloody Paradise” made a strong debut, entering Spotify’s Weekly Top Songs Global chart at No. 59. The song also dominated domestic music shows, securing five consecutive wins for ENHYPEN.

ENHYPEN, formed through Mnet’s survival reality show “I-LAND,” made their debut in November 2020. The group now consists of six members: Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Niki.
