This was the lowest first day sales yet.
Koreaboo
One of the most significant parts of the K-Pop experience nowadays is the release of physical albums. Fans love to collect multiple versions of their favorite releases, and the total number of albums sold is a measure of the group’s success.
Thanks to the widespread popularity of K-Pop, several groups have been able to surpass the million-seller mark on individual albums, many of which have gone well beyond that.
Recently, fans were shocked by the low number of first day sales achieved by a girl group.
Originally debuting as a duo, AO entertainmentPRIMROSE has gone through multiple lineup changes to reach its current four members. The first return with this lineup took place in August 2023 with Laffy Taffy.
On November 14, 2024, the group returned with their third mini-album, Awakening of the heart, containing the title track of the same name. In the day following its release, it amassed over half a million views, a significant figure for a debut group managed by a smaller company.
However, the group’s first day of sales was surprising to many. According to the Hanteo Chart, PRIMROSE sold 7 albums in total on their first day of sales.
Fans reacted to this number with great surprise, not understanding how the group’s sales were so low.
This is so sad, to me.
is a standout album this year. I wish it got the proper promotion it deserves, because this is the Nugu girl group’s best album this year.
As if the production on this album was engaging. Primrose deserves attention.
The album is unique. https://t.co/DP6DGssM5F

While this total may have been surprising, things have already started to look up for the group’s first week sales. According to Hanteo, second-day sales reached 110, beating the previous highest second-day sales.
We hope PRIMROSE continues to grow and succeed!
