https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_albums_in_South_Korea S.E.S has the best selling girl group album ("Love") in kpop history with 760,475 sales in 1999. Their other album sales are big numbers too: 1998: 651,330 1997: 650,000 2000: 626,565 Only Fin.K.L with 593,816 album sales ("White") in 1999 stands between Twice and S.E.S. Twice saled with Twicetagram 525,405 albums in 2017. For me Twice is the only girl group right now which could break Fin.K.L. record. But could they break the all time record of S.E.S? 760,475 is a really big number. Twice is without doubt the best selling girl group for the third generation but could they break these numbers with only one album? The benefit for S.E.S and Fin.K.L. was that to this time only physical albums were an option. And please don't name other artist than Fin.K.L. and S.E.S. Don't want this thread to end up in a fight.
Perhaps if Twice releases a real hit and then a full the next comeback that might do it but I think it's more probable that they won't do it.
Unlikely. TWICE does not have the international fanbase to push their album sales that high and that's what you need for those numbers. EXO and BTS would never sell a million copies of an album without their i-fans but the 1st gen had no i-fan sales, that's why TWICE will need i-fans to push those numbers. HOWEVER BlackPINK does have that potential
Twice has Japan. They are known for buying physicals more than digital so as long as Twice keeps up the steady comebacks in Japan and Korea they'll be fine
That's true, in fact so far this year, TWICE's YT views from Japan are almost 3 times what they are in South Korea but keep in mind, TWICE has Hi Touch Events in Japan which help thier Japanese sales, but we are talking about Korean Sales
So... 250k more album from their previous sales record. Seems a lot for a GG but I dont see it as impossible. We have a group that will most likely sell 2m and that was thought to be impossible before.
Lols true but that can be said for every fandom and BP would probably be in the millions But you and I know that the record breaking isn't in album sales but in thier 7 Number 1 Songs and thier chance to match Big Bang in Inkigayo Triple Crowns

Twice need a damn hyped comeback to break this record , i feel they will beat it the day they change their concept !!! Till then they will be saturation of 300k - 400k sales in gaon !!!
I don't think any girl group can't break those records since the girl group competition this era are high. Unlike the past, maybe I'm wrong cause i don't really know which other gg had compete with fin k.l and s.e.s
Looking at the numbers is it just me that sees 200,000 as like their being 2 more to go, but then realizes their are 5 zeroes behind that 2? And it isn't as close as it seems. Lmao. Records are meant to be broken but isnt this a special album? A lot of kpop fans say these kind of albums never do as well as main albums but this could be different.
Excuse me twice did not sell 500k for twicetagram.. And can they sell 700k with one album? No simply no. No gg rn has that potential. For multiple albums a year yes, 3 albums should do it .
