SEVENTEEN Enter IFPI Global Artist Chart for Fifth Consecutive Year, Extending Their Worldwide Consistency

SEVENTEEN have once again secured their place among the world’s top-performing acts, landing on the IFPI Global Artist Chart 2025 and marking their fifth consecutive year in the ranking.

The group came in at No. 14, continuing a streak that began with their No. 9 debut in 2021. With this achievement, SEVENTEEN and BTS remain the only K-pop artists to appear on the chart for five straight years a milestone that highlights long-term global stability rather than short-term peaks.

A Ranking Built on Total Global Consumption

The IFPI Global Artist Chart combines physical album sales, digital downloads, and streaming figures from across the world, making it one of the most comprehensive indicators of international music performance.

SEVENTEEN’s continued presence reflects balanced strength across all formats, driven by consistent releases, strong touring power, and active unit promotions that expand their reach in multiple markets simultaneously.

A Year of Group and Unit Dominance

Their 2025 results were powered by an unusually wide range of projects.

The full-group album HAPPY BURSTDAY climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard 200, while multiple unit releases including BSS’s TELEPARTY, Hoshi and Woozi’s BEAM, and S.Coups and Mingyu’s HYPE VIBES delivered strong chart performances.

The unit activity not only diversified their sound but also strengthened their global footprint, allowing SEVENTEEN to occupy positions across the Billboard K-pop Artist 100 ranking and demonstrate their multi-layered fandom power.

Momentum Continues Into 2026

The group’s pace has not slowed in the new year.

Main vocalists DK and Seungkwan recently released the ballad-focused mini album SOYAGOK, with the title track topping domestic and international charts. Meanwhile, S.Coups and Mingyu are meeting fans through their ongoing CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY tour across major cities.

Stadium Tour Set to Close a Massive Era

SEVENTEEN will soon resume their large-scale tour schedule with SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] IN ASIA, beginning at Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Stadium and continuing through major stadium venues across the region.

The tour will conclude with an encore concert at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium on April 4–5, bringing the seven-month global run to a grand finale.

A Model for Long-Term Global Growth

By maintaining a Top 20 position for five consecutive years, SEVENTEEN are demonstrating a different kind of global success one built on sustained output, unit expansion, and touring scale.

Rather than relying on a single breakout moment, their strategy has created a steady worldwide presence, positioning the group as one of the most consistent global acts in the K-pop industry today.
