In a poll published Friday (Aug. 21) by Billboard, music fans selected the K-pop heavyweights’ second installment in the ongoing THE SIN series as their favorite new release of the week.

THE SIN : BLISS rose above a number of new releases this week from artists including Sam Smith, Weezer, Stella Lefty and Reba McEntire. At the poll’s closing time on Sunday, ENHYPEN’s new mini album had come out on top with nearly 73% of the vote.
