It’s official: aespa’s upcoming single album “Dirty Work” has already racked up over 1.01 million stock pre-orders, and it isn’t even out yet.
On June 27, SM Entertainment announced the milestone, confirming that “Dirty Work” is set to continue aespa’s clean (ironic, we know) streak of million-seller albums. For those new to the numbers game, stock pre-orders refer to the number of albums produced ahead of release based on projected demand, which means fans are ready to grab these albums the second they drop.
Another Million-Seller Incoming
aespa’s track record speaks for itself:
- “Girls”
- “MY WORLD”
- “Drama”
- “Armageddon”
- “Whiplash”
Each of these albums has crossed the million mark, and “Dirty Work” is on track to becoming their sixth consecutive million-seller. Not bad for a group that consistently dominates charts while serving powerful visuals and addictive hooks that stick in your head longer than your last to-do list.
Release Details
- Release Date: June 27 at 1 p.m. KST for the single album and its title track’s MV.
- Collector’s Alert: A limited-edition “Dirty Crew Ring” version of the album drops on July 4 for fans who want to flex their support in style.
Final Thoughts
aespa continues to prove they’re not just another trending group; they’re establishing themselves as one of the most consistent and powerful forces in K-pop’s current landscape. “Dirty Work” is shaping up to add another trophy to their collection before it even hits streaming platforms.
If you’re looking to keep your summer playlists fresh, “Dirty Work” is likely going to be one of those tracks you’ll see (and hear) everywhere—because aespa’s million-seller club just got another VIP guest, and it’s their own album.
