K-pop band Seventeen’s “FML” was named last year’s most-sold album globally. 

According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry(IFPI), the tenth mini album of the South Korean boy band topped its 2023 Global Album Chart, announced on Tuesday, with cumulative sales of six-point-27 million copies worldwide. 

Another South Korean boy band, Stray Kids, came in second with its album “★★★★★ (5-STAR),” followed by American country star Morgan Wallen's “One Thing At A Time” and Taylor Swift's “Midnights.”

K-pop group NCT Dream also made the top ten, ranking sixth with “ISTJ.”
