At the same time, with this number, Aespa officially set a new record for the highest number of pre-ordered albums in the history of Kpop girl groups.

Not only that, the owner of the Next level hit also broke the previous record set by BlackPink with 1,028,888 pre-orders for The album (2020). Currently, Aespa's Girls and BlackPink's The Album are the only two albums by K-pop girl groups to surpass 1 million pre-orders.

Before this admirable achievement, Aespa members could not help but be surprised and express their gratitude to their fans.

They shared, "We're surprised and delighted to hear that pre-orders for our second mini-album Girls have surpassed 1.61 million copies. We've been working hard to prepare for it. This album and you guys have been waiting for it for a long time. We feel overwhelmed to set a new record from the very beginning. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will show better performances. and bring better music in the future".

On online forums, many people quickly left comments congratulating the Dreams come true girls: "I'm so proud as an Aespa fan. This is great news. I don't care. as to who breaks the record because newer generations will always break it, but I'm glad that Aespa is being recognized by everyone and is constantly rising", "They deserve it, no one can follow a concept such a myth.. I'm sure SM put a lot of effort into developing it, I'm glad they got the results for their hard work", "The transition to a girl crush image has really helped increase it. album sales leader"...

Also on July 8, SM's "pet chicken" officially released the mini-album Girls on music platforms. The mini-album contains a total of 9 songs, including the title track of the same name, the English and Korean versions of Life's too short, Illusion, Lingo, ICU, Black mamba, Forever and Dreams come true.

As soon as it was released, Aespa's Girls immediately attracted the great attention of the Kpop fan community. The song belongs to the exciting dance music genre, with a fast, powerful tempo and daring melodies. The content of the MV continues the story of SM's cultural universe, the Savage girls officially won the battle against Black mamba and headed to a new world under the guidance of the virtual character Naevis. Not only that, besides the well-invested MV, Aespa is also praised for her good and powerful voice as well as her impressive and personal performance costumes.

On the other hand, to mark this comeback, Aespa will hold a live broadcast worldwide via YouTube and TikTok platforms on July 11.

It's easy to lose, in the album sales charts, BlackPink is somewhat "underdog" when it doesn't reach the top because the album copies have a much lower number. However, this is also understandable when BlackPink has not released many group albums as well as individual members.
