Now that the album is out and up on the charts, the answer is they chose a week with hardly any competition as usual. 🙃 I live under a rock and just took a look at the past two weeks: Jan 22 to Jan 28, AKB48 released an album and ranked first with about 576k copies sold; Jan 29 to Feb 4, EXO released an album and ranked first with about 89k copies sold.
