[NB] Taeyeon and Baekhyun have the top solo album sales for the past 10 years

Actually, IU sold more than Taeyeon, but she wasn't included because she debuted before 2011.

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

Why would she be included on a list of people who were bestsellers among artist that debuted in the past 10 years?

But that's not what the title says. It says past 10 years, not debuted in the past 10 years.

Quote from Pinky_Peachy

Then why would you make your initial comment?

Because if its who sold most in the past 10 years, IU is ahead of Taeyeon?

The title says most sold in the past ten years. No mention of it only being artists that also debuted after 2011. Yet the data is based only on that.

I assume its a misstranslation.

So the article just mediplay, it's very weird to begin with btw, to accumulate sales that way

They were the IT couple back then

I'm just correcting the article. I've seen the same mistake elsewhere.

I think Gaon didn't want to be incorrect since they don't have data from before 2011. But because of that some news media made wrong reports.

Even if they had included pre-2011, I doubt IU would be a top seller in physicals. Lilac is probably the only time she has had significant physical sales.

BGs > BG-Soloists> GGs > GG-Soloists> Soloists seem to be the pattern.

It is rather facile to put Taeyeon and Baekhyun as pure soloists, when their physical sales obviously leverage the group fandoms. Same with BTS.

Sure, but it it doesnt change the fact that even if you include only sales done after 2011 IU is still the top selling female solo artist when it comes to physicals.

And that's one of the worst things about Kpop. Just because of what happened a long time ago, we can't get a heavenly collab. It's so annoying!
