SEVENTEEN has proven its popularity in Japan, landing at No. 1 on the major charts.
According to the latest Japanese Oricon chart (dated November 6), Seventeen topped the weekly combined album rankings (from October 23 to 29) with their 11th mini album 'SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN'.
This marks their 11th No. 1 on this chart, which is a record among foreign artists. Also, SEVENTEEN has topped the chart with seven consecutive albums including 'FML'.
The new album sold more than 5 million copies in the first week alone, landing at No. 1 on the Weekly Album Ranking chart.
Seventeen also dominated Melon, Genie, and Bugs. Seventeen is the only boy group who landed at No. 1 on the Melon's Hot 100 chart this year
The album title comes from adding the unique meaning to "7th Heaven" (a state of extreme happiness). Members unite with Carats (fandom name) as 'Team SVT', holding a massive festival to celebrate their achievements together.
'SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN' is an album containing a total of 8 songs, including 'SOS', 'Back to Back', 'Monster', 'Yawn', 'Diamond Days' and 'Headliner'.
Meanwhile, the band will head to Saitama where it will continue the 'Follow to Japan' series at Belluna Dome on November 23-24.
