SEVENTEEN, the popular K-pop group, has made significant waves in the Japanese music market. They achieved the highest ranking among overseas artists in Oricon’s "Total Sales by Artist" category. Their sales reached an impressive 6.38 billion yen, placing them fourth overall from December 25, 2023, to December 16, 2024.

The success of SEVENTEEN is evident in their performance in the music software category, where they claimed the third spot among overseas artists. This category includes singles, albums, and music DVDs/BLU-RAYs. Their strong album sales further solidify their popularity in Japan.

Remarkably, SEVENTEEN achieved the highest overseas artist rankings in four categories. This includes the "Combined Album Ranking" and "Album Ranking." Their standout album, "Seventeen Is Right Here," ranked third, while their 12th mini-album, "Spill the Feels," secured fifth place.

In addition to their albums, SEVENTEEN’s fourth Japanese single, "Show Hikyugen (Expiration Date)," made an impressive debut. It ranked 17th in the "Single Ranking" just two weeks after its release.

SEVENTEEN has demonstrated significant popularity in Japan through successful album releases and concerts. They attracted over 254,000 attendees across four shows in Osaka and Kanagawa in May. During their "Seventeen ‘Right Here’ World Tour in Japan" from November to December, they welcomed around 485,000 fans. This remarkable turnout highlights their passionate fanbase and the group’s ability to connect with audiences.

Looking ahead, SEVENTEEN will continue their global activities in 2025. Fans can anticipate a world tour covering major Asian cities in January and February.
