BE was released last November 27 as BTS's final comeback of the year. It destroyed first-week sales records by selling 2,274,882 units of the deluxe album within its first week of release.
According to a report by All Kpop, BE sold 1,950,000 copies within a day of its release and surpassed the 2 million album sales by its second day. A huge part of the album's success was because of the member's inputs in the album's concept and content.
Based on Hanteo's rankings, the sales for BE is second only to BTS' Map of the Soul 7, which was released last February. The third biggest selling album was also from BTS. Map of the Soul: Persona sold 2,130,000 copies.
