There were only two other Japanese versions. Considering that all the records are broken with only a few albums makes another case in point for BLACKPINK's immense success.The girl group made history in 2020 when they released THE ALBUM, their first full-length album, and created the record for being the first girl group in history to surpass 1 million Stock Pre-Orders.BLACKPINK BLINK UNION@BLACKPINK_BBU.@BLACKPINK’s ‘THE ALBUM’ has now surpassed 1M pre-orders, becoming the 1st album by a Korean girl group to do so in history!41661845.@BLACKPINK’s ‘THE ALBUM’ has now surpassed 1M pre-orders, becoming the 1st album by a Korean girl group to do so in history! https://t.co/TyBiVzRLfgPhysical sales are important for any K-pop group since agencies earn more profit from them compared to digital revenue.A small number of physical sales bring in bigger profit margins for companies who need a relatively larger audience to generate the same revenue via digital streaming.BLACKPINK's newest achievement has cemented their grand status in the music industry.BLACKPINK returned to the music scene with their pre-release single Pink Venom View this post on Instagram Instagram PostThe K-pop quartet made their 2022 comeback with their pre-release single Pink Venom on August 24.
