    With only four days of digital sales and streams, this is an incredible achievement for BTS and for KPOP as a whole.

    As well as this, the boys achieved the most number ones across iTunes for Korean artist with 73 countries including the UK and US. They also gained 1.12 million pre-orders of the album in South Korea alone.
