SM Entertainment said Wednesday that Baekhyun's second mini album, "Delight", released on May 25, sold 1.02 million copies as of the end of June.

His first solo album, "City Lights", came out in July last year.

In 2013, EXO's first full-length album became the first album in 12 years to sell over 1 million copies in Korea. Their four subsequent full-length albums also sold more than a million copies each.

The last time a solo singer achieved the 1-million milestone was in 2001 when Kim Gun-mo released his seventh album.
