How many albums do you think BE essential edition will sell??

I am guessing 1M on Gaon? Not sure. It all depends how many fans + stores preorder the album in the upcoming month.

i'll play it safe and say 500k

I'm going to say between 1-1.5 M. I feel like it would have been more, had it been released earlier, but even with less hype it should sell well.

Depending on if there is exclusive content in it, we might hit 1.5

Over 3 million.

1M if there're new songs

i mean, I wouldn't have high expectations since this is just the standard version of an album that is already out, not a repackage or anything. The people most likely to buy it are those who didn't buy the deluxe. Plus the sales will just be included in the overall sales of BE, potentially bringing the total to 4 million (

Voted for 500k

I dont think it would be counted officially on Gaon. It doesnt have the same release date. It would be another million seller if it hits it.

UWC and Billboard would probably add it up with Deluxe, they add repackages as well.

500k to 1M since it’s likely not even a repack where you get brand new packaging and new songs. This one works in reverse where you get the standard version with the same cover and same songs later, 2 months after the main release. Think of the SLA Repack they’d re-released last year which sold up to 600k+.

1.2M first week

It could be more if there is a new song.

Around 1 million first week? Hard to know.

I still don't understand this "essential edition" thingy and what's the point of it...

a standard cheaper version of the same album

why now exactly? shouldn't they release it first before the deluxe version? or at least at the same time?

I think those who want to buy only 1 album will buy this version because it is a bit more affordable, and collectors who like to collect all versions will buy it. I say max 1 million.

I really shouldn't have bought the deluxe version because it feels like this essential version is more special than the other one...

1M in the first week if there’s new songs.

maybe 1M? I don't really know cause some armys were annoyed about its late release and aren't buying it (like me lol)

We might reach a landslide number with this promo

2 million.

lol at some saying 500k, ITS BTS

Considering half of my mutuals have bought 2+ copies... I’m going to go with around 1million. The only think stopping it from doing more is the fact that the delux album came out first. If Bighit had done this they probably would have sold more than MOTS7 . Either way theyre gonna do amazing and I’m excited to see what new content we’re getting.

At least 1.5 million, yall underestimate the fandom's growth.

i don't think more thak 1mil as It's released a lot later than you might expect. But m happy it got released since more armys will be able to afford this one.

1 to 1.5M because ARMY already bought the deluxe version

not less than 1 million for sure!!

It depends, if there is no exclusive content, maybe a bit less than a million or a million. But if there is exclusive content, i’d say 1.5M+

The only reason i could think of why bighit released the limited version first & the standard so much later is that they were counting on army panic buying the expensive one.

I know many armys who were waiting on a standard one (because the limited one was really pushing their budget), but they eventually bought the expensive one, because they thought a standard wasn't coming anymore & the other one might be limited.

I think this one might still sell 1m+ (the stickers are convincing a lot of people even if they bought the limited one lol)

at least 2 million?

I don't trust armies they say they are broke but they lie so imma go with 2-3mil

I say 2 million. There are many armys who bought just ne version for the deluxe edition and those would have wanted to buy more copies. Plus it has totally different photocards, the collectors will surely buy them. If SLA special edition did 600k and it was an old and expensive album, this one will do more than double for sure.

I have armys on my tl buying 4 copies each and since I’m now getting my album, I estimate 1.5-2M. Remember that SLA made 700k for a rerelease. Also there are gonna be special contents to the time the album is officially out so I’m guessing a lot of armys will change their minds based on how interesting the contents are in the upcoming weeks to the album

I think that it will be similar to deluxe. Or higher if chinese ARMY will mobilize

1.5 to 2 million is a safe bet, I think. Especially with the raffle to win an autographed interview photobook, people will bend over backwards to try out for that. Hell, I nearly did but weverse shipping always makes me say no to buying from them.

what Big Hit decided is good.... Cs many people couldn't buy Delux edition.....

But Big hit,

Don't do the same thing you did for Black Swan, please. If there is a new song, please don't go with your pathetic idea "Sudden release, no trailer". The only pathetic idea, because of which The masterpiece: Black Swan got 0 music Show wins, 0 nominations, 0 awards though Black Swan deserved the most. Pls inform us with st if there is st.
