TXT's Yeonjun Shatters Records with Solo Debut Album 'NO LABELS: PART 01'

Yeonjun, a prominent member of the globally recognized group TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT), officially launched his solo career on November 7, 2025. This highly anticipated venture arrived in the form of his first full-length project, titled "NO LABELS: PART 01." Following up on his successful 2024 mixtape "Ggum," the new release immediately signaled both impressive commercial power and a refined artistic direction. The album features a total of six tracks, anchored by the dynamic lead single, "Talk to You."

The immediate commercial performance of "NO LABELS: PART 01" was nothing short of historic. Data released by the Hanteo Chart confirmed that the album achieved phenomenal first-day sales, moving 542,660 copies. This figure not only established a new personal sales record for Yeonjun but also positioned the release among the highest-selling solo debuts of 2025. Demonstrating the rapid growth of his fanbase, this single-day total surpassed the entire first-week sales record of his previous mixtape, "Ggum," which had reached 116,846 copies, by more than four times.

The album’s success was not confined to domestic charts; it quickly garnered significant international recognition. By 10 AM on November 8, less than 24 hours after its release, "NO LABELS: PART 01" had already secured the top spot on the iTunes Top Albums chart in a minimum of 15 global regions. Key markets where the album dominated included Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Philippines. Furthermore, the title track "Talk to You" claimed the number one position on iTunes Top Songs in six different countries and topped the Bugs real-time chart in Korea.

A major point of interest surrounding the debut was the ambitious music video presentation. This visual project was structured as a mini-film chronicling personal transformation and the theme of liberation from restrictive labels. Unusually, the video seamlessly integrated three distinct compositions: "Coma," "Let Me Tell You (feat. Daniela of KATSEYE)," and the primary title track. The inclusion of Daniela of KATSEYE added an intriguing collaborative element to the project.

Beyond the statistics, both critics and the global fanbase were quick to praise Yeonjun’s exceptional vocal prowess and masterful stage presence. Online discussions frequently highlighted his remarkably stable live vocals, even when executing the demanding choreography associated with tracks like "Talk to You" and "Coma." The artist showcased a rare blend of powerful energy, inherent charisma, and sophistication, effectively setting a new standard for contemporary solo idols. Fans have already encapsulated his unique aesthetic using the term "Yeonjun Core," signifying a style that merges precise emotional delivery with compelling stage expression.

Representatives from BIGHIT MUSIC emphasized that the album serves as a definitive reflection of the performer’s individual musical identity. They noted that "NO LABELS: PART 01" powerfully illustrates how an authentic artistic vision and complete freedom of self-expression can resonate profoundly with a worldwide audience.
