Popular group Shinhwa's Shin Hyesung, who has successfully carved out his own solo career, is likely to be the 4th singer this year whose album exceeds sales of 100,000 copies.
According to statistics from the Korean Music Industry Association, Shin Hyesung's 2nd album "The Beginning, New Days" have already sold a whopping 94,046 copies as of 30 November. Shin Hyesung released his 2nd album on 8 August after a break of 2 years and 3 months, and the main track "First Person" has garnered immense popularity. Within 4 months of the album release, he is now very close to breaking the 100,000 sales mark.
In August when Shin Hyesung released his 2nd album, sales already hit 50,182 copies, becoming the highest-selling album for the month. Maintaining his strong sales, by the end of November, he is now only just 5,000 odd copies away from reaching 100,000.
Using an average of 10,000 copies per month for calculation purposes, Shin Hyesung is very likely to break the 100,000 mark by the end of December. As a solo artiste, Shin Hyesung sold 183,463 copies of his first solo album, released on 6 May 2005. If he succeeds this time round, he will be able to enjoy the accolade of having both of his solo albums breaking the 100,000 sales mark.
