Hanteo Chart records the physical albums sold on mainstream websites and stores in South Korea. The Hanteo Chart only takes into account the actual number of albums sold (already sent to the recipient), which is different from the Gaon Chart, which records the total number of albums distributed by record labels. So compared to Gaon Chart, Hanteo Chart's statistics will be lower and reflect the album sales more accurately.
Below is the actual number of albums sold by K-Pop girl groups and female soloists according to Hanteo Chart.

BLACKPINK's 'The Album' topped the K-Pop girl group album sales chart according to Hanteo in 2020. However, the full-length album has not reached the milestone of 1 million copies sold, while according to Gaon Chart, it's already surpassed 1.25 million copies sold (Gaon Chart records the total number of albums distributed by record labels). However, this is still a good achievement for the YG girls. They outrank the runner-up - IZ*ONE with 'Oneiric Diary' (439,994 copies), and ranked 7th on Hanteo's best-selling album chart in 2020.
