Taeyeon outpaced singer MC Mong (Fame) and sibling duo AKMU (How Can I Love the Heartbreak, You're the One I Love).
“Purpose” also dominated the daily album charts on Hanteo and Kyobo. The album contains 12 tracks including the maudlin Here I Am, the soulful Love You Like Crazy, the jazz-flavoured Do You Love Me? and the blues rocker Better Babe.
