Idol group ENHYPEN has reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking a new milestone with three consecutive weeks of K-pop albums topping the chart.

Billboard announced on the 30th (local time) via its chart preview article that ENHYPEN's eighth mini-album "THE SIN : BLISS" reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart dated September 5, 2026.

Billboard stated, "'THE SIN : BLISS' recorded 98,000 album units during this reporting period," adding that "album sales totaled 92,000 units, while SEA accounted for 6,000 units."

This marks the first time since ENHYPEN's debut in 2020 that the group has reached the top of the Billboard 200 chart.

Released on the 21st, "THE SIN : BLISS" tells the story of lovers who realize that choosing to escape together despite breaking taboos is itself a blessing. Based on initial sales figures from domestic album tracking site Hanteo Chart, the album sold 2,099,048 copies in its first week, completing its fifth cumulative double million-seller status.

With ENHYPEN securing No. 1 on the Billboard 200 this week, a new record was also set as the first K-pop album to hold the top spot for three consecutive weeks.

Prior to ENHYPEN, Stray Kids' "THIS & THAT" and Cat's Eye's "WILD" claimed the No. 1 position on the 22nd and 29th, respectively.
