Selling 3 million in Korea equals 100 million in the U.S?

The oldest data I can find is 2004. The US album sales were 57 times the SK's. But that's not how it works.

But Urban Dictionary is filled with jokes, so I get it.

I am so confused!!!!

lmao. Math checks out

Army will love this post lol

I prefer this method:

Population of South Korea in 1995: 45,092,991

Population of the United States in 1995: 266,278,000

So if we divide 3,300,000 sales by 45,092,991, we see that the equivalent of 7.32% of the South Korean population purchased Kim Gun-mo's third album.

To get equivalent sales in the US, we take 7.32% and multiply it by 266,278,000, which yields 19,486,785 copies.
