BTS Score Their Third No. 1 Album In The U.S. With 'Map Of The Soul: Persona'

NEW YORK, NY - APRIL 12: V, Suga, RM, Jungkook, Jin, Jimin, J-Hope of BTS visit The Elvis Duran Z100 Morning Show at Z100 Studio on April 12, 2019, in New York City. BTS, easily the biggest and most successful name in K-pop in the world, is back at No. 1 in the U.S. after less than a year away with their latest album, proving once again that they can do things no other name in their genre can.debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 230,000 equivalent units shifted.

BTS made history last year when they became the first K-pop act to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200. They then repeated the feat a few months later with the last title in theirseries, and now they’ve become the first K-pop act with three chart-toppers. While Korean music is rising quickly in popularity all around the world, it might be a while before any other act in the field can also rise to No. 1 in the U.S., or even enter the top 10 with a collection.
