‘Comeback’ TREASURE, Debut Album Pre-Order Begins… Will They Reach Their Goal of 1M in Sales
[뉴스엔=황혜진 기자] Rookie group TREASURE’s official debut album pre-orders began on December 29 at 12 PM.
According to YG Entertainment, TREASURE’s official debut album ‘THE FIRST STEP : TREASURE EFFECT’ will be released next year on January 11, while physical copies will officially be released on the next day, on the 12th.
TREASURE’s official debut album will be released in a total of 4 different versions, including the blue, green, orange colored cover CDs and a KiT. The CD has high possession value since it will include a 155-page photobook, a large lyric postcard set, and various random photocards.
The initially produced copies will also include a FIND TREASURE scratch card, a double-sided poster, and an AR photocard which the viewers will be able to watch special unreleased clips.
TREASURE’s first release of a KiT format album also stands out. It is an album which the listeners can enjoy music through a smart device without additional driven equipment. The KiT album will include a title card and a random strap keyring.
TREASURE is staying very active under YG’s fast·concentrated strategy. They’ve released new songs almost every month since they made debut back in August 7 and has announced the release of their official debut album, showing off their presence as the prepared newcomers.
From their debut title song ‘BOY’ to ‘I LOVE YOU’ and ‘MMM’, TREASURE fascinated the global fans through their ‘group dance moves’ and unrivaled skills. The people are looking forward to how TREASURE will finalize ‘THE FIRST STEP’ series and step up, as they’ve shown significant progress every time, they’ve made comeback.
The album sales of TREASURE, the group formed to target the global market, is also a matter of interest. The 3 single albums TREASURE has released since debut have reached a total of over 700 thousand album sales. Considering that official albums reach higher album sales figures compared to single albums, it is highly likely that TREASURE’s goal of reaching 1M in album sales will become reality.
After showing significant growth after making debut, TREASURE has won the Rookie of the Year Award at the ‘2020 Asia Artist Awards’ as well as winning the honor of receiving the Best New Male Artist Award and a Main Award at the ‘2020 Mnet Asian Music Awards’, noticing their upcoming success in other award ceremonies.
Physical copies of TREASURE’s official debut album, ‘THE FIRST STEP : TREASURE EFFECT’, will become available next year on January 12 through YG SELECT and nationwide retailers online and offline.
