The group ENHYPEN reached the top of the Oricon chart in Japan, continuing its unstoppable run of success in the island nation.
On the 1st, according to Japan's Oricon, ENHYPEN (Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, Ni-ki)'s mini 8th album "THE SIN : BLISS" sold about 190,000 copies and shot straight to No. 1 on the latest weekly album ranking (Sept. 7 issue / tracking period: Aug. 24–30). With this, ENHYPEN has achieved the feat of placing 11 albums at No. 1 on that chart since their mini 2nd album "BORDER : CARNIVAL."
Their momentum on global charts is fierce as well. "THE SIN : BLISS" recorded first-week sales of 2.09 million copies, easily surpassing the record of their previous mini 7th album "THE SIN : VANISH." Moreover, it claimed No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the main U.S. albums chart, once again proving their global stature encompassing Korea, the United States and Japan.
The craze for the title track "Bloody Paradise" is also intense. After setting the group's highest ranking on Spotify's weekly top songs global chart, they swept the five major domestic music shows on both terrestrial and cable broadcasts, achieving their first "grand slam" since debut. They are also showing their impact by sweeping No. 1 on Korean charts on short-form platforms such as TikTok.
Meanwhile, ENHYPEN surprise-released a performance music video for "Bloody Paradise" on their official YouTube channel on the 31st. In the video, ENHYPEN expresses a vampire's love directed only at "you" through precise and wild group choreography, delivering a captivating aura and thrilling visual pleasure.
