The idol group Enhypen (ENHYPEN) has risen to become the most influential artist in the United States. According to the latest Billboard chart released on the 27th (local time) for the week of January 31, Enhypen ranked first on the 'Artist 100.' The 'Artist 100' is a chart that ranks artists based on a combination of digital and album sales, online streaming, radio airplay, and social media metrics. This is the first time Enhypen has achieved the number one spot on this chart.
On this week's 'Billboard 200' chart, their 7th mini-album 'THE SIN : VANISH' ranked second. The album topped the 'Top Album Sales,' 'Top Current Album Sales,' and 'World Albums' charts. The title track 'Knife' ranked first on the 'World Digital Song Sales' chart and placed 62nd and 90th on the 'Global (excluding U.S.)' and 'Global 200' charts, respectively. Billboard stated that the official streaming count of the tracks on 'THE SIN : VANISH' reached a total of 9.51 million, setting a new record for the group.
Enhypen has achieved the feat of placing six consecutive albums in the top 10 of the Billboard 200. Prior to 'THE SIN : VANISH,' their 3rd mini-album 'MANIFESTO : DAY 1' ranked 6th, 4th mini-album 'DARK BLOOD' ranked 4th, 5th mini-album 'ORANGE BLOOD' ranked 4th, 2nd full-length album 'ROMANCE : UNTOLD' ranked 2nd, and 6th mini-album 'DESIRE : UNLEASH' ranked 3rd. The second-place ranking of 'THE SIN : VANISH' was decided by a margin of 1,000 copies in sales against the 4th full-length album 'Don't Be Dumb' by famous American rapper A$AP Rocky, released after about eight years.
With 'THE SIN : VANISH,' Enhypen recorded over 2.07 million copies sold domestically and internationally in the first week of release, marking the group's fourth 'double million-seller.' The album topped the Hanteo Chart weekly album chart (tracking period January 12–18) with only three days of sales counted, and also ranked first on Japan's Line Music weekly 'Album Top 100' (tracking period January 14–20) and the Oricon Daily Album Ranking (January 21).
Meanwhile, Enhypen will hold a fan event titled 'VAMPIRE IS COMING' at the COEX Auditorium in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, on the 30th. This event was organized to watch the four chapter videos of 'THE SIN : VANISH' together with fans. The members plan to spend time communicating with fans to help deepen their understanding of the album. 'VAMPIRE IS COMING' will also be held in Hong Kong on the 31st and Tokyo on February 14.
