NCT WISH has barely stepped back into the spotlight, and the numbers are already enormous. The group’s fourth mini album, “I SPY,” has crossed the one-million mark in a single day, confirming that the unit’s momentum shows no sign of slowing.
A Huge Opening Day on the Charts
The group made its comeback on October 12 at 6 p.m. KST, releasing “I SPY” together with a title track of the same name. Within roughly 24 hours, the mini album had moved 1,200,086 copies, according to Hanteo Chart’s tally of first-day sales.
That figure carries extra weight because it is not a one-off. “I SPY” is only the second NCT WISH release to cross one million copies on its opening day, joining “Ode to Love,” which set the bar earlier. For a unit that is often described as NCT’s youngest, repeating a feat like this shows how loyal and active its fanbase has become.
Another Milestone in a Growing Streak
The new record also extends a remarkable run. “I SPY” is the fourth consecutive NCT WISH album to sell more than one million copies in its first week. The earlier entries in that streak were “poppop,” “COLOR,” and “Ode to Love,” meaning every release in the group’s recent discography has cleared the same threshold.
Taken together, the results suggest that NCT WISH has moved well beyond being a promising newcomer and is now one of the stronger album sellers in K-pop. With the first-week totals still to be finalized, there is a good chance that “I SPY” will end up well above the million line.
Fans are already celebrating online, and congratulations are pouring in for the members on yet another landmark comeback.
