TWS First-Day Sales: “NO TRAGEDY” Opens With 833,138 Copies Sold

TWS first-day sales for “NO TRAGEDY” landed at 833,138 copies, giving the group a new career-high opening for an album release. For anyone tracking TWS NO TRAGEDY Sales, the key story is simple: the fifth mini album did not just start strongly on April 27, 2026; it surpassed an important previous benchmark in a single day.¹

The figure came from Hanteo Chart data cited in Korean entertainment reports after the album’s release. “NO TRAGEDY” also went straight to No. 1 on Hanteo’s daily album chart, making the first day a clear commercial milestone for TWS.¹

TWS First-Day Sales Set a New Career High

The first-day total of 833,138 copies is especially notable because it exceeded the Circle Chart cumulative total for TWS’s previous mini album “play hard,” which was listed at 746,731 copies through the previous month.¹ That comparison is the most useful way to understand the scale of this opening: “NO TRAGEDY” moved beyond that earlier cumulative figure within its first release day.

Dispatch / DIPE also reported the same 833,138-copy first-day sales figure for “NO TRAGEDY,” citing Hanteo Chart, and described the album as reaching a career high by surpassing the group’s previous album sales benchmark in one day.² When multiple reports point to the same number and chart source, it gives the result a firmer place in the album’s early sales record.

The release itself was officially scheduled for 6 p.m. KST on Monday, April 27, 2026, through PLEDIS Entertainment’s Weverse notice. Preorders had opened earlier, at 11 a.m. KST on Monday, March 30, 2026, through multiple online music retailers including Weverse Shop, MUSICPLANT, Aladin, MAKESTAR, Apple Music, Music&Drama and KnPOPS.³

Preorders Built the Momentum Before Release

Before the first-day sales number arrived, “NO TRAGEDY” had already signaled strong demand. Korea JoongAng Daily reported that the EP reached 1.16 million preorders before release, while ChosunBIZ, carrying an OSEN report, stated that “NO TRAGEDY” recorded 1.16 million preorders as of April 24.⁴⁵

StarNews added another useful comparison: the 1.16 million preorder figure was nearly double the final preorder count for TWS’s fourth mini album “play hard,” which it listed at 648,182 copies.⁶ That context matters because it shows the first-day result was not isolated from the album’s broader commercial buildup. The demand was visible before release day, and the Hanteo first-day total then turned that momentum into a measurable sales milestone.

The album was introduced as a six-track release. Korea JoongAng Daily described “No Tragedy” as an EP led by “You, You,” and also reported that member Dohoon participated in writing lyrics for the lead track.⁴ StarNews described the release as covering several styles, including house, R&B, boom bap hip-hop, funk and rock.⁶

At the April 27 press showcase at Yes24 Live Hall in Seoul, the members framed the album around continuity and growth. Jihoon said, “The youthful energy our fans and the public have shown us love for remains the same in this album.”⁴ Shin Yu also connected the million-copy preorder milestone directly to fan support, saying, “I think 1 million copies is not just a number but motivation given by fans.”⁵

What the Chart Response Shows

The physical sales result was not the only early indicator for “NO TRAGEDY.” Reports also noted movement on digital music charts after release. Sports Kyunghyang said new tracks entered Melon’s Top 100, while Dispatch / DIPE reported that the title track “You, You” ranked No. 55 on Melon’s Top 100.¹²

The album also had an early response in Japan. Sports Kyunghyang reported that every album track charted on Japan’s LINE MUSIC real-time Song Top 100 as of 11 p.m. on April 27, and Dispatch / DIPE likewise reported that all tracks charted on LINE MUSIC’s real-time Song Top 100.¹²

That combination of physical sales, domestic chart entry, and Japanese real-time chart activity gives “NO TRAGEDY” a fuller opening picture. The first-day album sales number is the headline, but the surrounding data shows that the release also found immediate listener attention across platforms.
