SEVENTEEN has once again shown their strong global influence by entering the IFPI Global Artist Chart for five consecutive years, joining BTS as the only K pop acts to achieve this milestone.
According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, SEVENTEEN ranked No. 14 on the “Global Artist Chart 2025.” The annual Top 20 list is based on worldwide physical album sales, digital downloads, and streaming numbers, highlighting the most successful artists across the globe.
Since first debuting on the chart at No. 9 in 2021, SEVENTEEN has consistently remained in the rankings. Notably, SEVENTEEN and BTS are the only K pop artists to enter the IFPI Global Artist Chart for five consecutive years, proving their steady global demand.
The group’s strong performance is also reflected in major U.S. charts. Their 5th full album “HAPPY BURSTDAY” ranked No. 2 on the Billboard 200, while the unit album “HYPE VIBES” set a new record for the highest ranking K pop unit album on the same chart. In addition, SEVENTEEN swept positions No. 1 through No. 13 on the “2025 Billboard K pop Artist 100,” showing balanced success from both group and unit releases.
Despite ongoing military service periods for members, SEVENTEEN continues to maintain high rankings and strong global presence, further solidifying their status as one of K pop’s top performing acts worldwide.
