The year is not even over yet, but it has already been racking up incredible historical events for BTS and their A.R.M.Y!

From the US and Poland, to Hong Kong and Brazil, the Korean pop group’s latest album,“Love Yourself: Her,” currently holds the top spot on iTunes’ top selling album chart in 73 countries and territories in three continents. -Marian Liu, CNN

Today marks the K-Pop group’s first-ever Billboard Hot 100 hit with “DNA” at No. 85. Entering this chart has been one of the artist’s biggest dreams. Finally, this dream came true with the support of their fans worldwide.

BTS just became the first Korean male group to have a charted song on The Billboard Hot 100. The group has officially followed the footsteps of the giant K-pop acts Wonder Girls, CL, and Psy who have all charted well on the most coveted record chart. The Billboard Hot 100 is the music industry standard record chart in the United States for singles, published weekly by Billboard magazine.

They worked hard and got it, I’m proud to be a fan of such a hardworking group and such a hardworking fandom A FAMILY♡

It is known that it is never easy for any music artist, even those who sing in English to have a Top 10 album in America.

BTS took the No. 1 spot on the World Albums Chart of Billboard this week.


Their latest album, Love Yourself: Her also debuted on Australia’s ARIA Albums Chart at #8!


BTS’ Love Yourself: Her has amazingly entered UK’s Official Charts at #14. Last year, BTS became the first Korean act to enter the Official Albums Chart with their WINGS and now – they just broke their own record.

BIG news for BTS (@bts_twt)! The boy band’s new album enters at 14 – the first ever Korean act in the album Top 40 ? https://t.co/OV3gDOZhXy pic.twitter.com/oOx0wnejr2

BTS, also known now as Beyond The Scene has been charting not only with their songs but also with their albums worldwide.

The group along with their fandom have been setting new records left and right. This makes BTS members and all of their teams’ efforts very much worth all the blood, sweat, and tears.

We hope everyone gets enough rest before they snatch more wigs!
