Boy group BOYNEXTDOOR has truly captured the current trend.

According to Oricon's release on the 16th, BOYNEXTDOOR's (Seong-ho, Ryu, Myung Jae-hyun, Tae-san, Lee Han, Un-hak) first full-length album 'HOME' sold approximately 159,000 copies in its first week of release in Japan, entering the 'Weekly Album Ranking' at number one.

'HOME' is a work that honestly expresses the emotions and memories BOYNEXTDOOR has experienced so far. The group incorporated various emotions faced from their trainee days to the present, completing an autobiographical album. For the first time, all members participated in song production, demonstrating their further evolved capabilities.

According to Hanteo Chart, the album sold a total of 1,085,715 copies within one week of its release. This marks their fourth consecutive million-selling album following their mini albums 3 through 5. Additionally, the album topped the 'Popular Albums' chart on Apple Music Korea from the 9th to the 14th.

The title track 'VIRAL' entered Melon's daily chart at number 68 on its release day and reached number 33 on the 14th. The rapid rise in rankings after music show performances is encouraging. After performing on Mnet's 'M Countdown' on the 11th, the song climbed from 51st on the 12th and 41st on the 13th to the top 30 on the 14th. Praised for its sophisticated group choreography that appeals to both the 2nd and 3rd generations of K-pop, further upward momentum is anticipated. On the 14th, it ranked 7th on Apple Music's 'Today's Top 100: South Korea'. It also entered the Melon weekly chart (collection period: the 8th–14) at number 50.
