As of November 7, aespa’s fifth mini-album has sold over 1.02 million copies, earning the group their fifth consecutive million-seller title, according to Circle Chart. This milestone marks another career-high achievement for the girl group.

Not only did Whiplash top the charts, but it also made an impressive debut on Spotify, ranking 53rd on the platform's global chart on its release day, the highest entry for a K-pop girl group song in 2024.
The album also charted on several Billboard lists in November, including World Albums, Global 200 (excluding the U.S.), Global 200, and the Billboard 200—showing their growing influence worldwide.
Released on October 21, Whiplash includes the title track of the same name, marking aespa's first venture into EDM and techno music.
The album also features tracks like Kill It, Flights, Not Feelings, Pink Hoodie, Flowers, and Just Another Girl, highlighting the group’s expanding musical range with six total tracks.
