This international artist's new album made the greatest hit internationally like occupying various music charts.

First, BTS was ranked No.one in the Billboard 200 chart. Billboard 200 chart is one of the charts in Billboard Magazine, which is decided by album's sales volume. BTS' album sold about one million, so they ranked No. one. BTS is the first group who ranked No. one in South Korea, so everyone got surprised. Seeing this shocking news, South Korea's president, Moon jae In, greeted them on Twitter. He congratulated the seven boys who love music and their wings, Army.

Moreover, BTS was also ranked No. ten in the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It is one of the single popular chars, which updates every week. Hot 100 chart's standard is to combine sales volume and number of broadcasting. If someone's song is ranked in Billboard Hot 100 chart, the chart proves that the song, which is on the rank is very popular. BTS' lead music, Fake Love, was ranked No. ten in Hot 100 chart. BTS' other songs, DNA and Mic Drop, were ranked in Billboard Hot 100 chart. Through these achievements, we are confident that BTS' new album will make the greatest hit internationally.

Finally, BTS occupied Korean music chart as soon as releasing their new album. The sound source chart reformation was abolished in 2017. The sound source chart reformation means singers cannot release their new albums at 12 o' clock, their songs line up because the number of users is so big. So, they made the sound source chart reformation meaningless. To that extent, BTS' new album succeeded a lot. BTS achieves a lot internationally, but there are more things to achieve such as attending to the Grammy, the awards which NARAS gives, and being ranked No. one in the Billboard Hot 100. Seeing their achievements, it will happen in a short time because of their outstanding musicality.
