ALPHA DRIVE ONE has made a historic entrance into the K-pop scene with million-seller power from day one.
According to Hanteo Chart on January 19, the group's debut mini album EUPHORIA recorded 1,441,270 copies in first-week sales. The achievement places ALPHA DRIVE ONE at No.2 for highest first-week sales among K-pop debut albums, following ZEROBASEONE, which previously set the top record with approximately 1.82 million copies.
The title track FREAK ALARM is also gaining strong momentum across global charts. Upon its release on January 12, the song topped Bugs' real-time chart in Korea and quickly expanded its reach overseas.
In Japan, FREAK ALARM claimed No.1 on multiple platforms, including LINE MUSIC's K-Pop Top 100, Rakuten Music's real-time ranking, and the iTunes Japan K-Pop Top Songs chart.
The pre-release track FORMULA had already signaled the group's breakout potential. Since its release on December 3, the song reached No.3 on Melon and Genie's latest charts and entered the iTunes Top Songs chart in eight countries. It ranked No.1 in Indonesia and Thailand, No.2 in the Philippines, and No.3 in Vietnam, underscoring ALPHA DRIVE ONE's fast-growing global presence.
