IU has stolen the throne.





On November 18th, IU officially released her album 'Love Poem.' As fans have been anticipated much for the release, IU dominated major Korean music charts with literally all tracks from her new album.





In less than one day since the release, 'Love Poem' reached sales of 101,434 copies on Hanteo charts. It's a bulk purchase from IU's Chinese fans. The purchase was done twice, the first order included 50,516 (to celebrate IU's birthday on May 16th) and the second one included 50,918 (to celebrate IU's debut on September 19th).

The record was previously held by Girls' Generation's Taeyeon, with her 'Purpose' album released earlier this October 2019 (78,327 copies).





Congratulations to IU!
