Top 10 Best-selling K-Acts on Oricon in 2021 (2020.12.28付~2021.07.05付)


Half a year has passed and that would be the Top 10 best-selling Korean acts so far in 2021. Sales range from the week 2020/12/14~2020/12/20 (2020/12/28付) until the week 2021/06/21~2021/06/27 (2021/07/05付).

BTS dominates the year once again among Korean artists, with a total of 1.3 million copies sold spread across 20 releases (Korean and Japanese). Their most recent release, <BTS, THE BEST> is also the best-selling album in Japan with 858,237 copies sold, and the 2nd best-selling release behind the single <Grandeur> by the Japanese boy band Snow Man with 958,768 copies sold.

TWICE is the only girl group on the list with a total of 196K copies sold spread across 10 releases (Korean and Japanese).

ENHYPEN stands out in this list as the youngest group since their debut (7 months), with a total of 140K copies sold with only 2 Korean releases and will soon be their debut in Japan, so it's expected that they can occupy the Top 3 of this list.

The only groups on the list without a Japanese release this year are ASTRO and Stray Kids, who have seen a surprising growth in popularity this year in the country, resulting in their old Korean albums selling well, it's possible that both groups could sell quite high in their next Japanese release.
