BTS member Jungkook is once again proving his unmatched global influence with a series of rapid sell outs worldwide.
Following the announcement of BTS’s 5th full album Arirang on the 16th, individual LP vinyl versions for each member were released. Among them, Jungkook’s Arirang Orchid version LP quickly stood out.
At major US retailer Target, Jungkook’s LP became the first among the members to record a third round of sell outs, highlighting his strong buying power. The same LP also sold out the fastest on Weverse Shop, with all copies gone in under 10 minutes.
The sell out streak continued overseas as well. Jungkook’s Orchid LP sold out first among the members at Europe’s K pop shop ipurple and Australia’s music retailer iHeartPopAus. In China, the LP was also the first to sell out during the third round of pre orders on the e commerce platform PINKY.
Jungkook’s influence extended beyond music as well. His ELLE Japan Spring 2026 special edition sold out immediately upon pre order at HMV and BOOKS. In addition, all nine individual versions and the set version of ELLE January 2026, along with Rolling Stone Korea, were completely sold out on Weverse Shop.
With albums and magazines alike selling out in record speed, Jungkook continues to live up to his nickname as the “Sold Out King,” once again proving his powerful global impact.
