Beloved K-Pop Idol Sells Only 2 Albums In A Day, Gains Attention For Alleged Reaction

As time has passed, the emphasis on selling physical albums has only increased for those in the K-Pop industry. Fans love collecting different versions of their favorite releases, while a measure of a group’s success is the total number of albums sold.

Many singers have achieved massive heights in album sales; several have hit the one-million-seller mark and beyond.

Recently, however, an artist’s recent sales, and subsequent response, have gained attention.

Boy group THE BOYZ made their debut in December 2017, and as of late, have been working on their solo careers following their departure from ONE HUNDRED.

Member Kevin Moon recently made his solo debut with FREECHILD, featuring the title track of the same name.

So far, according to the Hanteo Chart, FREECHILD, has sold 1275 copies, including the second day where he sold two albums. These results, along with posts made by Kevin believed to be directed at another group, sparked mockery.

In response, it seems Kevin has shared his thoughts.

In posts shared on September 6, Kevin said that ‘who cares about statistics,’ reflecting on creating happiness in other people instead.  He also expressed a desire to inspire others to follow through and create art, alongside other encouraging posts.

Fans responded in turn, sharing encouraging words and praise for Kevin.

That part, numbers are never that big of a deal, as long as it’s music you enjoy making for you and your fans, that’s all you’ll need.
