aespa’s second full-length album LEMONADE has surpassed 1,037,190 cumulative sales on Circle Chart, becoming the group’s eighth million-selling album. The figure was reported on June 11, 2026, after the album’s May 29 release, with SM Entertainment cited in multiple Korean media reports.12
The sales milestone places aespa Lemonade in the group’s continuing run of million-selling releases. Reports identified the album as the eighth aespa release to cross the million-copy threshold, following Girls, MY WORLD, Drama, Armageddon, Whiplash, Dirty Work, and Rich Man.1
LEMONADE Sales Pass 1,037,190 Copies

The central figure reported for LEMONADE is 1,037,190 cumulative copies sold, based on Circle Chart data released on June 11, 2026. The album had been released less than two weeks earlier, on May 29, 2026, making the new total the key measured sales update available from the provided sources.2
Yonhap reported that SM Entertainment announced the album had exceeded 1.03 million copies in cumulative sales on Circle Chart. The Korea Times, carrying a Yonhap report in English, also said aespa’s second LP Lemonade had become the group’s eighth million-selling album, citing SM Entertainment and Circle Chart figures above 1.03 million copies.34
The milestone is notable because the sources frame it not as a debut-week claim, but as a cumulative Circle Chart sales result. The specific total of 1,037,190 copies was repeated by Hankyung, Newsis, Money Today, and Newspim in their June 11 coverage.1256

Eighth Million-Seller in aespa’s Discography
The new result extends a sequence of aespa albums that have passed the million-sales mark. Hankyung listed LEMONADE after seven prior million-sellers: Girls, MY WORLD, Drama, Armageddon, Whiplash, Dirty Work, and Rich Man.1
That framing is consistent across the available reports. Newsis described LEMONADE as the group’s eighth million-seller, while Money Today reported that the album added another million-seller record following aespa’s previous releases.25
The sources do not provide detailed breakdowns by format, region, retailer, or daily sales pattern. They also do not identify a separate sales certification body beyond the Circle Chart basis cited in the reports. For that reason, the verified point is the cumulative Circle Chart total and the associated position of LEMONADE as aespa’s eighth million-selling album.
Overseas Chart Results Also Reported

Newspim reported the same Korean sales milestone and added that the album placed No. 9 on the Billboard 200 and No. 1 on the United World Chart album category.6 The Korea Times report also highlighted the album’s Billboard 200 top-10 entry while identifying Lemonade as aespa’s eighth million-selling album.4

With 1,037,190 cumulative Circle Chart sales reported on June 11, 2026, LEMONADE stands as aespa’s eighth million-selling album. The record adds to the group’s existing million-seller list while also being accompanied by reported overseas chart placements, including a Billboard 200 top-10 result.
