BTS in Billboard charts


BTS clinched the 19th spot on Billboard's list of the 25 greatest pop stars of the 21st century.

South Korean supergroup BTS was recently recognized among the 25 greatest pop stars of the 21st century by Billboard, taking the 19th spot on the list.

In an article, Billboard said BTS has “broken through ceilings for boy bands, K-pop and South Korean artists in general.”

It also highlighted that the band did so while “creating a meaningful community that is continually inspired by BTS' message of positivity, love and connection.”

The publication also listed some of BTS's remarkable feats, including their six Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits and six Billboard 200 No. 1 albums.

BTS' tracks that charted in the Hot 100 include “Dynamite,” “Savage Love” with Jawsh685 x Jason Derulo, “Life Goes On,” “Butter,” “Permission to Dance,” and “My Universe” with Coldplay.

Billboard added, “No K-pop group--or group in general--has been able to accomplish what Bangtan has this century. From creating a global community to expanding K-pop well outside of its genre and delivering seven successful pop star solo acts, BTS truly paved the way.”

Formed in June 2013, BTS consists of seven members--RM, Jin, Suga, J-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook.

The members are currently fulfilling their mandatory military services, except for Jin who already completed his last June 2024.

The group is set to reconvene in 2025.
