In a resounding triumph for the global K-pop phenomenon, Tomorrow X Together (TXT) has secured its position as the frontrunner in the US music market with an extraordinary feat of CD sales during the first half of 2023. According to a recent report published by esteemed data company Luminate, TXT's highly anticipated fifth EP, "The Name Chapter: Temptation," skyrocketed to the top of the charts, surpassing all competitors and selling an astounding 395,000 copies in the United States alone. Luminate's data serves as the foundation for Billboard's weekly charts, further solidifying TXT's status as an unstoppable force in the industry.
TXT, comprised of five exceptionally talented members, has captivated audiences worldwide with their unique blend of music, mesmerizing performances, and relatable lyrics. Building upon their previous successes, the group's latest EP has not only claimed the No. 1 spot on the highly coveted Top CD Album Sales chart but also secured an impressive second position on the Top Albums Total Sales chart, which amalgamates sales of both physical and digital albums. It is worth noting that TXT's remarkable achievement on the Top Albums Total Sales chart was only outshined by the chart-topping album "Midnights" from the illustrious Taylor Swift.
A testament to their ever-growing popularity, "The Name Chapter: Temptation" follows in the footsteps of TXT's previous EP, "minisode 2: Thursday's Child." The latter claimed the No. 4 position on the Top CD Album Sales chart in the first half of the previous year and further ascended to No. 3 for the entirety of 2022, accumulating a staggering 227,000 album sales. With this consistent upward trajectory, TXT has undeniably cemented their status as a powerhouse in the US music market.
The resounding impact of TXT's latest EP was not confined to the realm of CD sales alone. In a groundbreaking achievement, "The Name Chapter: Temptation" debuted at an astonishing No. 1 on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart in February and maintained its dominance for an impressive 19 consecutive weeks. This remarkable feat highlights the unwavering support and fervent loyalty of TXT's fanbase, known as MOA (Moments of Alwaysness), as well as the group's unrivaled ability to captivate listeners across diverse musical landscapes.
