Oricon noted, “‘19.99’s first-week sales of 134,000 copies have surpassed ‘HOW?’s 77,000 copies, setting a new record for the group.
The album has already exceeded the total Japanese sales of ‘HOW?’ in just the first week.” The album also topped Japan’s LINE Music daily album chart on the 12th and continues to hold the top position as of September 16.
BOYNEXTDOOR is making waves with ‘19.99,’ which was released on September 9.

‘19.99’ delves into the emotions and experiences of being nineteen, a time often seen as the peak of one’s life.
