BOYNEXTDOOR has officially cemented their place among K-pop’s rising elite with a career-defining milestone.
On May 13, 2025, the group released their latest mini album, “No Genre”, and in a stunning display of fan support and market impact, the album surpassed 1 million copies sold within just five days of its release.
This achievement, confirmed by Hanteo Chart on May 17, marks the group’s first time breaking the 1 million sales mark in the first week, and it’s also the fastest-selling album of their career to date.
This sales triumph is particularly impressive given the competitive nature of the current K-pop landscape, where only a select few fourth-generation groups have reached similar figures so quickly.
With two full days remaining in the official first-week tracking period, the final sales tally for “No Genre” could climb even higher, potentially breaking further records and increasing their visibility for year-end awards and international recognition.
The title “No Genre” isn’t just a name—it’s a statement of the group’s artistic identity.
The mini album showcases a wide range of musical styles, reflecting BOYNEXTDOOR’s versatility and refusal to be boxed into a single sound.
This creative direction has clearly resonated with fans, who responded with overwhelming enthusiasm both digitally and physically.
The comeback’s momentum wasn’t limited to album sales. BOYNEXTDOOR has also seen massive digital success, topping iTunes charts in various countries and landing six tracks in the Top 12 of the Melon 100 chart—a strong indicator of both domestic and international appeal.
They’ve also been active on Korea’s major music shows, sharing stages with top-tier acts like Baekhyun and DAY6, further raising their profile and showcasing their stage presence to a wider audience.
This moment marks a new chapter for BOYNEXTDOOR, whose growth since debut has been steady and strategic.
Their ability to break through with a million-seller album not only reflects the dedication of their fanbase, known for their consistent support, but also suggests that the group is now entering the upper echelons of K-pop’s current generation.
As fans and industry watchers alike look ahead to the rest of 2025, it’s clear that BOYNEXTDOOR is no longer just a promising rookie group—they’re a force to be reckoned with.
With “No Genre,” they’ve not only defied the limitations implied by the album’s title—they’ve redefined their own potential. Congratulations to BOYNEXTDOOR on this incredible achievement. The future looks bright, and the world is watching.
