Circle Chart’s Official 25 Best-Selling K-Pop Albums Of 2023
Hanteo recently announced the best-selling K-Pop albums in 2023 according to their charts, and now, Circle Chart has shared theirs as well! Though both companies use similar data to determine their rankings, Hanteo keeps track of actual sales just in certain stores, while Circle Chart bases their data on album shipments, so in reality, the actual number of K-Pop album sales is probably somewhere between their reported numbers. This means that the two charts often have different rankings for their best-selling albums, and 2023 was no different.
Here are the 25 best-selling K-Pop albums of 2023 according to Circle Chart’s data!
