Boy band Alpha Drive One ranked No. 4 on Oricon’s Monthly Album Ranking with its debut album “Euphoria,” according to agency WakeOne Entertainment on Friday.

It debuted on Oricon’s Weekly and Weekly Combined Album Rankings at No. 3, and spent another week on both at No. 4.

The first EP from the rookie group was unveiled in January and sold more than 1.44 million units in a week, setting a record as the second-best-selling debut album from a K-pop group, while all six tracks from the album made Melon’s Top 100.

With the lead single “Freak Alarm,” the eight members picked up trophies from all three major television music chart shows, becoming the first boy group since Wanna One nine years ago to do so with a debut song.
