About The Boyz
The eleven-member boy group debuted under Cre.ker Entertainment back in 2017, capturing fans worldwide with the EP "The First" and its lead track "Boy." It managed to peak at the third spot of the South Korean Gaon Album Charts with equivalent album sales of more than 70,000 copies. This immediate reception placed The Boyz on a stellar trajectory in the K-pop industry, with their following mini-albums, "The Start," "The Only," and "Dreamlike," all peaking within the top three of the Korean album charts.
In 2019, they made their first Japanese-language EP, "Tattoo," led by a title track of the same name. With close to 20,000 sales, it peaked at the second spot on the Japanese Oricon charts and number four on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums Chart.
Their latest release, September 2020's "Chase," set a new record for the group with almost 370,000 album sales, placing second on the South Korean Gaon Album Charts.
