P1Harmony, the six-member boy band under FNC Entertainment, has achieved a new milestone with their latest release. Their seventh mini-album SAD SONG, which dropped on September 20, 2024, sold over 300,000 copies on its first day, smashing the group’s previous first-day sales record.
First-Day Sales Past 300,000 Units
According to the Hanteo Chart report on September 22, 2024, P1Harmony sold an impressive 304,644 units of their mini-album SAD SONG within the first 24 hours of its release. This marks the group’s highest first-day sales to date, surpassing their previous record of 251,576 units for their sixth mini-album HARMONY: ALL IN.
The jump in sales reflects the growing popularity of P1Harmony, who debuted in 2020 and have steadily built a global fanbase. The new figure also puts them in a strong position for achieving their highest first-week sales.
Tracks and Themes in SAD SONG
The SAD SONG mini-album features seven tracks, with the title song sharing the same name. The tracks include:
- SAD SONG
- It’s Alright
- Last Call
- Welcome To
- All You
- WASP
- SAD SONG (English Version)
The group’s title track SAD SONG has been particularly well-received, praised for its emotional resonance and unique Latin-inspired sound. The music video for the track adds to the excitement, incorporating visual nods to previous releases, creating an engaging experience for fans.

Previous Records and Growing Popularity
The success of SAD SONG is another significant achievement for the group, whose debut studio album Killin’ It, released earlier in 2024, recorded 166,676 first-day sales. The latest figures more than double that number, reflecting the band’s upward trajectory in the K-pop scene.
This new achievement comes shortly after the success of their single SIREN, which catapulted P1Harmony to fame in October 2020. Since then, the group has continued to release chart-topping hits like:
- Do It Like This
- JUMP
- Killin’ It
- Doom Du Doom
- Back Down
- Fall In Love Again
Outlook for First-Week Sales
With the album having just been released, all eyes are now on P1Harmony’s first-week sales figures. The strong start suggests that the group could easily break their own first-week sales record as they continue to gain momentum in the music industry.
