The group TWS (TWS) once again grabbed the "million seller" title with their new album, breaking their own highest first-week sales record.
On the 4th, according to Hanteo Chart, a music sales tracking site, TWS's fifth mini album NO TRAGEDY sold a total of 1,112,770 copies during the week after its release (April 27–May 3), topping the weekly chart. Selling 830,000 copies on the first day alone and instantly surpassing the performance of their previous release, they comfortably reached the 1 million mark on the fourth day after release, proving a fierce upward momentum.
Along with solid fandom power, they are showing strong influence on public metrics such as streaming and short-form platforms. The title track "I follow you (You, You)" entered major domestic streaming charts as soon as it was released, and the music video surpassed 20 million views within six days of its release. In particular, the "Ttarum challenge," which uses the song's addictive hook section "Dda-rum," climbed to No. 2 on Instagram Reels' rising audio chart, heating up both online and offline.
After a successful comeback first week showcased on various music shows last week, TWS added the sophisticated performance characteristics of house music to their existing refreshing image, earning praise for a more evolved stage manner.
Having firmly captured domestic music fans, TWS will continue the momentum by performing on MBC M's Show! Champion on the 6th. They will then move to Japan to perform consecutively at KCON JAPAN 2026 on the 8th and Kstyle Party 2026 on the 9th, aiming squarely at global K-pop fans.
