Racking up 2 billion streams and selling 7.5 million albums, SEVENTEEN has rocketed to the forefront of the global music industry fueled by a fiercely independent spirit, in-house creative ecosystem, and one irresistible work after another. The group's innovative structure hinges on the interplay of three units: the hip-hop team led by S.COUPS, vocal team led by WOOZI, and performance team led by HOSHI. Living up to the title of "self-producing idols," the self-contained and self-empowered act has unassumingly made history and become one of the biggest K-pop groups ever due to their world-class synchronization, jaw-dropping choreography, and tight teamwork.
SEVENTEEN's 2015 debut EP, 17 CARAT, emerged as "the longest running album on the Billboard World Albums Chart," remaining in the chart for eleven weeks. Billboard crowned An Ode the "Best K-pop Album of 2019" as the act packed arenas and sold over half a million tickets. The EP Heng:garæ elevated them to rarified air in 2020. Over 1 million copies were sold during the week of release. Not to mention, it earned "the third best first-week sales in South Korea." On its heels, they eclipsed 1 billion total streams on Spotify, making them the third Korean boy group to achieve this feat. With their following EP ; [Semicolon], the act made their U.S. TV debut on The Late Late Show with
James Corden.
