South Korean pop group TVXQ, known as in Japanese releases, have released twenty studio albums (four which were re-released under different titles), three extended plays (released as "special albums" or "mini albums"), four compilation albums, ten live albums, four remix albums, one soundtrack album and one box set. The group has sold over 14 million physical records since 2004, including 9.4 million in Japan, making them one of the best-selling K-pop acts of all time.
TVXQ released their debut single "Hug" in January 2004. Their first studio album Tri-Angle (2004) debuted at number one on the Monthly Albums Chart by the Music Industry Association of Korea (MIAK), starting a winning streak of number-one albums for the group in the country. Influenced by their label mate BoA, TVXQ crossed over to the Japanese music industry in 2005, and released their debut Japanese studio album Heart, Mind and Soul in March 2006. The album had mediocre success overall, peaking at number twenty-five on the Oricon Albums Chart, selling less than 10,000 copies. However, sales improved for their second Japanese album Five in the Black (2007), which peaked at number ten on the Oricon. Their third Japanese album T, released in January 2008, was TVXQ's first gold-certified album from the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ). In between their early J-pop endeavors, they issued two more Korean albums Rising Sun (2005) and "O"-Jung.Ban.Hap. (2006), both being best-selling top-charters in K-pop music charts across Asia.
In September 2008, the group released their fourth Korean studio album Mirotic, their most critically successful and best-selling album to date. It is the first Korean album in four years to break past half a million copies, and was the highest-selling Korean album of the year across Asia that year. In March 2009, TVXQ released their fourth Japanese album The Secret Code, their first platinum-certified album by the RIAJ. A year later, TVXQ achieved their first number-one record in Japan with the release of their Japanese greatest hits album Best Selection 2010, the fastest-selling and best-selling album of their career. It achieved a double platinum certification from the RIAJ after only a month of release.
After a two year hiatus, TVXQ returned as a duo with their fifth Korean album Keep Your Head Down (2011), which debuted at number one on the Gaon Albums Chart. In September, the duo issued TVXQ's fifth Japanese album Tone, which became TVXQ's first regular studio album to top the Oricon, breaking a sales record previously set by Bon Jovi. The duo's next studio efforts, the Korean album Catch Me (2012) and the Japanese album Time (2013) were major commercial successes and chart toppers, the latter being TVXQ's fastest-selling regular album in Japan.
TVXQ's commercial success continued with the release of their seventh Korean studio album Tense (2014), which was TVXQ's fastest-selling Korean album since Mirotic in 2008. The release of TVXQ's tenth Japanese album XV (2019) pushed TVXQ to be the first international artist in Japan to have six number-one studio albums in a row
