ENHYPEN Scores First No. 1 on Billboard Artist 100, as 'THE SIN : VANISH' Debuts at No. 2 on Billboard 200

ENHYPEN just claimed the top spot on Billboard’s Artist 100, becoming the most influential act in the U.S. this week. Riding the momentum of their new release, the group swept No. 1s across five Billboard charts and vaulted into the upper tier of the Billboard 200, underscoring their fast-rising global profile.

According to Billboard’s latest charts dated Jan. 31, land their first-ever No. 1 on the Artist 100, which blends album and track sales, streaming, radio airplay, and social engagement into a single weekly ranking of overall artist impact.

Their seventh mini album, "THE SIN : VANISH", opens at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and dominates genre and sales lists: it rules Top Album Sales, Top Current Album Sales, and World Albums. Title track "Knife" hits No. 1 on World Digital Song Sales and appears on both Global Excl. U.S. (No. 62) and the Global 200 (No. 90). Billboard also notes the set’s tracks collectively earned 9.51 million official streams during the tracking week, a new career high for the group.

ENHYPEN now boasts six consecutive top 10 entries on the Billboard 200: "MANIFESTO : DAY 1" (No. 6), "DARK BLOOD" (No. 4), "ORANGE BLOOD" (No. 4), "ROMANCE : UNTOLD" (No. 2), "DESIRE : UNLEASH" (No. 3), and, most recently, "THE SIN : VANISH" (No. 2). This week’s runner-up finish came down to a razor-thin margin of roughly 1,000 units behind A$AP Rocky’s "Don’t Be Dumb," his first full-length in nearly eight years.

Globally, "THE SIN : VANISH" surpassed 2.07 million in first-week sales, marking ENHYPEN’s fourth “double million-seller.” With only three days of tracking, the album still topped Hanteo’s weekly album chart (Jan. 12?18), and it also led Japan’s Line Music Weekly Album Top 100 (Jan. 14?20) and the Oricon Daily Album Ranking (Jan. 21).

Up next, the group hosts a special fan event, "VAMPIRE IS COMING," on Jan. 30 at COEX Auditorium in Seoul. The gathering invites ENGENE (the fandom) to watch the album’s four chapter films together, with members planning candid conversations and immersive moments around the new release. The event will also stop in Hong Kong on Jan. 31 and Tokyo on Feb. 14.
