Kep1er has made their debut on the Billboard chart for the first time since their debut. On the 1st, Kep1er released their sixth mini-album ‘TIPI-TAP’. According to the latest Billboard chart (dated 16th), the album ranked 35th on ‘Top Album Sales’. ‘Top Album Sales’ is a chart that ranks albums based on pure sales in the U.S.

It is interpreted that they are receiving a good response in the North American market beyond just Korea. That’s not all. ‘TIPI-TAP’ also ranked 28th on ‘Top Current Album Sales’, 11th on ‘World Albums’, and 21st on ‘Heatseekers’, achieving a career high. Kep1er also ranked 14th on ‘Emerging Artists’. The comprehensive tally of new song streams and album sales has highlighted their growth potential.

The agency commented, “The chart reflects global physical album sales trends beyond domestic and international digital music charts,” and added, “We have confirmed their potential for limitless growth.” Meanwhile, Kep1er recently restructured from a 9-member to a 7-member group, continuing activities as the first survival group to extend their contract.
