Group TOMORROW X TOGETHER member Yeonjun achieved a "half million seller" on the first day of his first solo album's release.
According to album sales tracking site Hanteo Chart on the 8th, Yeonjun's mini album 1st "NO LABELS: PART 01" sold a total of 542,660 copies on its release day (the 7th), topping the daily album chart (Nov. 7). Yeonjun, with his first solo album released 6 years and 8 months after his debut, set a meaningful record and lit a green light for success.
The new release is also standing out on global charts. As of 10 a.m. on the 8th, it ranked No. 1 on iTunes "Top Albums" in 15 countries/regions including Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and the Philippines, and ranked No. 4 and No. 5 on the "Worldwide iTunes Albums" and "European iTunes Albums" charts, respectively. The title track "Talk to You" reached No. 1 on iTunes "Top Song" in six countries/regions including the Philippines and Malaysia.
His performance on domestic music charts was also notable. "Talk to You" rose to No. 1 on Bugs' real-time chart at 5 p.m. on the 7th and remained in the upper ranks until 8 a.m. on the 8th.
The music video that links three tracks in an omnibus format — the album track "Coma," "Let Me Tell You (feat. Daniela of KATSEYE)" and the title track "Talk to You" — is also a hot topic. Yeonjun revealed charisma, delicacy and explosive energy, completing his own "Yeonjun core." As of 10 a.m. on the 8th, the video had entered YouTube's trending videos in 15 countries/regions, including Taiwan (No. 8), Singapore (No. 9) and Sweden (No. 10).
On the release day, the 7th, Yeonjun appeared on KBS2 "MUSIC BANK" and premiered the "Talk to You" stage. The energetic moves that blended with the rough and vivid sound of hard rock delivered a thrill to viewers. His confident attitude of enjoying the stage like a playground and the live performance using a handheld microphone drew attention. In particular, he led the stage without faltering despite elaborate stage movements and asserted his presence among many dancers, announcing the return of a "K-pop representative dancer." He will appear on SBS "Inkigayo" on the 9th.
