Previously, SEVENTEEN's "Your Choice" only sold 21.9K units in the first week since it was released on June 18.

"Attacca" will be the boy group's second album to land on the US album chart, following "Your Choice." Also, it will be the second time that the band will chart inside the Top 15 since "Your Choice" also entered at No. 15 this past June.
Like "Your Choice," "Attacca" is also projected to claim No. 15 on the Billboard 200 chart. However, Billboard's data may have a slight difference from that reported by Double Daily Hits, so the album may debut higher than No. 15.
In addition to the popular Top 200 albums chart, SEVENTEEN's "Attacca" is also expected to debut on the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart at No. 1.
Meanwhile, "Attacca" has already sold more than 1.7 million copies on Korea's Hanteo Chart, becoming the boy group's best-selling album on Hanteo, beating "Your Choice."
Congratulations to SEVENTEEN on their upcoming debut on Billboard charts with "Attacca"!
