“Jin entered the Billboard 200 for the second time after ‘HAPPY’, which ranked fourth last November, and recorded the highest ranking on its own chart,” Billboard said. “The sales of ‘Echo’ in the first week have been strengthened with seven tracklists, 13 CDs containing collectible paper souvenirs, and five download albums.”
Billboard 200 is calculated by summing up the number of streams converted into album sales and the number of digital music downloads converted into album sales with traditional album sales such as real albums.
“Echo” is an album that depicts various moments of life spreading like different sounds. The title song “Don’t Say You Love Me” contains the irony of not being able to easily let go of each other because of love even when the relationship with the lover is collapsing.
