K-pop fans, it is time for you to rejoice as BTS, NCT 127, TXT, BLACKPINK and others top the Billboard’s World Album Chart! The Billboard charts take into consideration the popularity of songs and albums in the United States and elsewhere giving the audience the analysis of which artists have ranked on our playlists and in our hearts. For the week of December 4, the World Album Charts seem to be dominated by our boy bands and girl groups from South Korea, marking a higher place for them in world music.
We have BTS who have landed a total of four albums in the top 15 of the World Albums chart this week. We have the band’s “Map of the Soul: 7” rose to No. 3 (in its 92nd week), “Love Yourself: Answer” to No. 6 (in its 169th week), and “BE” to No. 7 (in its 53rd week), while “Map of the Soul: Persona” re-entered the chart at No. 14 (in its 128th week).
