ALPHA DRIVE ONE: A presence across the world and remarkable sales

The group ALPHA DRIVE ONE recorded two consecutive “million sellers” in its very first debut year and also made its entry into the U.S. Billboard charts.

Its agency WAKEONE stated on November 3 that ALPHA DRIVE ONE is expanding its domain of activity in the advertising sector in Korea and abroad, based on its record-selling results.

ALPHA DRIVE ONE made its debut last January 12 with its 1st mini-album “EUPHORIA”. According to Hanteo Chart, this album sold 1,441,270 copies during its first week of release, from January 12 to 18.

Its 2nd mini-album “UNBREAKABLE : 少年BEAST”, released on August 24, also sold 1,139,747 copies during its first week of release, from August 24 to 30. The total first-week sales for both albums amount to 2,581,017 copies.

The group also achieved chart performances abroad. The 2nd mini-album, officially released in the United States on October 2, rose to 5th place on Billboard’s “World Albums” chart, 9th place on the “Emerging Artists” chart, and 20th place on the “Top Album Sales” chart as of October 17.

Advertising activities also continue. ALPHA DRIVE ONE was chosen as a model for a beauty brand even before its debut, and subsequently collaborated in various fields such as fashion and food & beverage. It has conducted collaborations with brands not only in Korea, but also in Japan and China.

ALPHA DRIVE ONE released the follow-up song “Talk to me” last October 22, and wrapped up its music show activities with SBS’s “Inkigayo” on the 1st of this month.
