Who sold the most albums so far in 2013?

AKP STAFF



2013 is off to a great start in K-pop with the return of some of the top acts in the music industry. Even though digital sales have been steadily taking over the physical album sales, this year many idols have enjoyed high album sales.

The ranking isn't exactly scientific as album releases vary by date, and certain albums have more than one part or include repackage editions. But still, when's a ranking ever not fun?
