Commercial performance

Miss This Kiss debuted atop the Gaon Album Chart and its title track "Hwi Hwi" earned the group their first music show trophy on the April 28 episode of Music Bank . The group's win was a controversial one and raised suspicion as it was expected that solo singer IU would win after dominating the charts with her single "Palette". The album's sales of over 28,000 copies was also questioned, as this was almost ten times as much as their last album's sales. The group's agency denied the accusations and clarified that an endorsement deal caused the boost in sales since the company bought copies of the album for giveaways at events. The agency threatened to take legal action against those spreading rumours about the group. [2]
