It took the top position on the iTunes album charts in the United States, Canada and Brazil among other places, according to SM Entertainment.

It said Red Velvet became the first K-pop girl group to reach the top of the US album chart with three consecutive releases, as "Day 1" and "Day 2" of "The ReVe Festival" series debuted at No. 1 in the US in June and August, respectively.

The album's main track, "Psycho," also swept South Korea's realtime music charts like Melon and Genie upon its release. (Yonhap)
