The idol group SEVENTEEN (S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, SEVENTEEN THE8, Mingyu, Dokyeom, Seungkwan, SEVENTEEN Vernon, SEVENTEEN Dino) has once again achieved remarkable success in Japan. They have topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Ranking with their latest Japanese single “Shohikigen.”

According to the Japanese Oricon chart, “Shohikigen” recorded approximately 418,000 copies sold from November 25 to December 1, securing the No. 1 spot on this week’s singles ranking. This is the highest first-week sales figure for a foreign artist’s single album this year.

Starting with “Fallin’ Flower” in 2020, SEVENTEEN has consecutively achieved No. 1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Ranking with “Not Alone,” “Power of Love,” and “Shohikigen,” earning the distinction of having the most consecutive No. 1s for an overseas artist. Additionally, they topped the latest Billboard Japan Top Singles Sales chart, solidifying their presence in Japan.

“Shohikigen” also topped the Oricon Daily Singles Ranking immediately after its release, maintaining the top position for five consecutive days. It surpassed 400,000 copies sold within just three days of release, proving SEVENTEEN’s strong album power.

SEVENTEEN’s popularity in Japan is further rising through their dome tour. From November 29 to 30, they thrilled 90,000 fans at the Vantelin Dome Nagoya, and they continue their “SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR IN JAPAN” at Tokyo Dome, Kyocera Dome Osaka, and Fukuoka PayPay Dome.

Furthermore, SEVENTEEN is continuing their global journey in the United States. On December 1, they became the first K-pop artist to appear on “The Wonderful World Of Disney: Holiday Spectacular” aired on ABC, where they performed “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town” as a solo stage, receiving great acclaim.

On the upcoming 12th, SEVENTEEN has been nominated for the “Top K-Pop Touring Artist” category at the “2024 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs)” and is set to perform their mini 12th album title track “LOVE, MONEY, FAME (feat.
