More about FML:
‘FML’ (F*ck My Life) and ‘Super’ are the tunes that serve as dual-title music. ‘FML’ stands out with lyrics that express sincere criticisms, while ‘Super’ has a message that likens SEVENTEEN to Son Oh Gong from Dragon Ball Z since SEVENTEEN is expanding eternally while carrying on the ‘Career High’ march. The music stands out because of its clashing colours. A total of six songs were recorded, including the vocal team unit song “Dust,” as well as the group song “April Shower,” the hip-hop team unit song “Fire,” and the performance team unit song “I Don’t Understand But I Luv U.” To raise the album’s calibre, S.Coups, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Mingyu, Vernon, and Dino all contributed, starting with member Woozi who serves as producer.
Achievement of SEVENTEEN:
9 months after the release of the 4th complete album repackaged “Sector 17” in July of last year, SEVENTEEN made a comeback. Just before, the song ‘World’ was released, and it adds a romantic spoon to SEVENTEEN’s coolness to create a tune that emanates cheerful energy. However, the recently reunited SEVENTEEN posted several ominous and ethereal concept art pieces, raising hopes for radically different music. Pre-orders resulted from this interest. By April 23, pre-orders for SEVENTEEN’s tenth mini album, “FML,” had surpassed 4.64 million copies both domestically and internationally.
They previously broke their record by receiving 2.18 million pre-orders in just three days after pre-order sales began, and they kept renewing the purchase volume, raising hopes for the success of “FML.” As a result, following the album’s release, attention was also given to the Initial Chodong (sales volume for one week after the album’s release). As if meeting these demands, SEVENTEEN struck it rich from the start. The album “FML” broke a record by selling more than 3.99 million copies on its first day of sales, making it the only artist to do so.
