Translation result<\/p>\n
BTS has extended the run of its blockbuster album \u201cARIRANG,\u201d holding top positions on major global music charts for six straight weeks.<\/p>\n
BigHit Music said on May 2 that the group’s fifth full-length album, \u201cARIRANG,\u201d and its tracks continued to notch major global milestones in their sixth week of release.<\/p>\n

Spotify remains the primary driver of the album’s momentum. On the April 24\u201330 weekly charts, \u201cARIRANG\u201d held the No. 2 spot on the \u201cWeekly Top Albums Global\u201d chart for a sixth straight week, while the title track \u201cSWIM\u201d rose to No. 2 on the \u201cWeekly Top Songs Global\u201d chart. All 14 album tracks charted simultaneously for six weeks, underscoring the record’s broad appeal. \u201cSWIM\u201d also spent 42 consecutive days in Spotify’s daily Top 3.<\/p>\n

The group is also widening its reach across Europe and Oceania. On the UK Official Charts released May 2, \u201cARIRANG\u201d placed No. 17 on the \u201cOfficial Albums Top 100,\u201d extending a six-week run. Physical formats remained particularly strong: \u201cOfficial Physical Albums\u201d jumped eight spots to No. 12, and \u201cOfficial Vinyl Albums\u201d re-entered at No. 18.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, the album reached No. 7 on Australia’s ARIA Top 50 Albums and No. 9 on France’s SNEP Top Albums chart. BTS picked up official certifications across Europe, including Gold in Italy and Spain and a Platinum certification in France after surpassing 100,000 album-equivalent sales.<\/p>\n
In Japan, the group reclaimed No. 1 on Oricon’s Weekly Digital Album Ranking, and older track \u201cCrystal Snow\u201d climbed streaming charts again following BTS’ recent Tokyo Dome concerts.<\/p>\n
The six-week global chart run highlights both BTS’ mainstream reach and the durability of its worldwide fandom. Steady streaming numbers and continuing demand for physical albums have reinforced the group’s standing as one of the dominant forces in the global music market.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, BTS is touring North America on the \u201cBTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’ IN NORTH AMERICA,\u201d which kicked off in Tampa on April 25.<\/p>\n
