“Echo,” the new solo EP from BTS member Jin, is on track for a solid opening-week performance in the United States.
According to Hits Daily Double, the album is set to sell 31K US copies by the close of the May 16-22 tracking period. With units from track sales and streams included, it may generate 39K in total first-week US activity.
The sales figure should earn “Echo” #2 on Billboard Top Album Sales; only Morgan Wallen’s new “I’m The Problem” is expected to sell more.
The unit figure, moreover, should be enough for a Top 10 debut on the Billboard 200. Current projections from Hits have it at #6 — and within striking distance of a Top 5 start.
Outside of hits chart-topping efforts as part of BTS, Jin previously reached #3 on Billboard Top Album Sales and #4 on the Billboard 200 with the solo project “Happy.”
