ENHYPEN's 'THE SIN : BLISS' Wins Billboard's Fan Poll With Nearly 73% of the Vote

ENHYPEN's eighth mini album, THE SIN : BLISS, has been voted the week's favourite new music in Billboard's fan poll, pulling nearly 73% of the vote by the time the poll closed on Sunday, August 23, 2026. The K-pop group dominated a field that included new releases from Sam Smith, Weezer, Stella Lefty and Reba McEntire, with the "other" category trailing at roughly 12% and Sam Smith's fifth album Hazel Eyes taking third place with 7% Billboard.

The album arrived on Friday, August 21, 2026, at 1 pm KST, featuring six new tracks. Pre-orders had opened five weeks earlier, on July 13 Weverse. THE SIN : BLISS is the second instalment in ENHYPEN's ongoing THE SIN series, which label BELIFT LAB's official discography page describes as exploring the dramatic climax of two lovers who broke the ultimate taboo of vampire society BELIFT LAB.

It is also the group's first release since member HEESEUNG announced his departure to pursue a solo career. ENHYPEN now operates as a six-member act: Jake, Jay, Sunghoon, Sunoo, Jungwon and Ni-ki Billboard.

The group's chart history gives context for the fan turnout. Before THE SIN : BLISS, ENHYPEN had landed nine titles on the Billboard 200 — the chart that ranks the most consumed albums in the US each week, combining sales and streaming equivalents. Six of those reached the top 10: MANIFESTO : DAY 1 (No. 6, 2022), DARK BLOOD (No. 4, 2023), ORANGE BLOOD (No. 4, 2023), ROMANCE : UNTOLD (No. 2, 2024), DESIRE : UNLEASH (No. 3, 2025) and THE SIN : VANISH (No. 2, 2026) Billboard.

ENHYPEN have been active on the road as well as in the studio. The group recently completed the Latin American and U.S. legs of their BLOOD SAGA tour, described as their largest world tour to date. In July 2026, they appeared at San Diego Comic-Con, where they introduced DARK MOON, an original story from parent company HYBE built around ENHYPEN's narrative universe. The BLOOD SAGA tour is set to continue in the United Kingdom and Europe from February through March 2027 Billboard.

Billboard's weekly fan poll invites readers to vote for their favourite new release from a curated shortlist. The margin here — a 60-point gap between ENHYPEN and the next closest option — reflects a fan base mobilised in the week of a fresh release, the first as a six-member group.
