Stray Kids Hyunjin's Chinese fandom sets album bulk purchasing record among male idol groups

AKP STAFF

Hyunjin is proving his rising popularity in China.

On an online community forum, netizens discussed how the Chinese fandom 'bar' for Stray Kids' Hyunjin has set a new record with the highest number of album copies purchased in bulk. Chinese fandoms for male idols whose bulk purchases have also made the list of top fives are those for BTS's V, Stray Kids' Felix, BTS's Jungkook, and NCT Dream's Jaemin

The number of album copies purchased by Hyunjin and V's respective Chinese bars are both over 230,000. According to the post uploader, the number of copies from Hyunjin's bar has surpassed V's.

Meanwhile, netizens in the comments are also noting that the price for BTS's album is "almost double" the price for Stray Kids' album. The fan then shared the ranking for the pre-orders based on the total sales amount and not the number of copies.

It has been discussed among netizens that the Chinese fandom is growing for both Stray Kids and BTS, with the former climbing up fast as a 4th-generation idol group. What do you think?
