RESCENE's 'PULSE' Sells 602,688 Copies in First Week, Nearly Six Times Its Old Best

RESCENE's fourth mini album PULSE sold 602,688 copies in its first week, Soompi reported, citing Hanteo Chart figures for Nov. 3 through 9. That is nearly six times the group's previous first-week best.

The old mark, 104,406, belonged to RESCENE's third mini album lip bomb. PULSE cleared it on day one, moving 131,893 copies on Nov. 3 and debuting at No. 1 on the Hanteo Daily Chart, allkpop reported.

The album arrived Nov. 3 at 6 p.m. KST, and the title track "With" reached No. 1 on Melon's TOP100 two hours later, allkpop reported. It went on to take No. 1 on Genie, Bugs and FLO for a real-time all-kill across four Korean services, and debuted at No. 2 on Melon's Daily Chart.

The rest of the tracklist followed. All five songs on PULSE entered the Melon TOP100 top 10, and the group occupied the entire top five of Melon's HOT100, according to allkpop.

The record traveled. allkpop reported that PULSE reached the top five of the US iTunes Albums chart and No. 3 on the Worldwide iTunes Album Chart. On Spotify's Daily South Korea chart, "With" debuted at No. 3 with 96,000 streams, with "Inside Out" at No. 8 on 62,000 and "Finest Thing" at No. 9 on 55,000.

Two more notes from release week: @KanataOkajima posted on X that he co-wrote "Finest Thing," and @RESCENEofficial posted the music video for "With" on X on Nov. 3, a post that has drawn 961,471 views and 12,554 likes.

The week lands on a bounce-back year. allkpop reported that "LOVE ATTACK" climbed the charts again on the back of memes like "Geoje Yaho," and that RESCENE remade KARA's "Pretty Girl" along the way. The group also performed on the first day of the 2026 Korea Grand Music Awards at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on Nov. 7.

Then came the trophy. RESCENE took their first music show win for "With" on the Nov. 10 episode of The Show, Soompi reported, scoring 8,379 against P1Harmony's "BLOW UP" and xikers's "DIENAMITE."
