Billboard charts in the United States revealed that BTS' new song Dynamite took first place on the newly announced Billboard Single Hot 100 chart.
The Hot 100 chart is a weekly ranking that aggregates streaming performance, sales volume, and radio broadcasts, and is simply a leaderboard showing the most popular songs in the United States.
This BTS was the first Korean singer to be ranked first on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and so far, Psy's Gangnam Style in 2012 was the highest.
BTS has been ranked #1 on the Billboard 200, which counts the album's rankings so far.
If the Billboard 200 is heavily influenced by the size of the fandom, it is known that it is not easy for non-English-speaking singers to take the top spot because the ranking for one song, Hot 100, is more competitive.
[BTS Suga/Online Press Conference (August 21): (New song'Dynamite') started out with the idea that we want everyone to give strength in this tiring time, so after listening to the song, many people give strength and comfort. I wish it was such a song that I could use (I would like it)]
On the other hand, for the song ON released in February this year, it won four crowns, including the Video Music Awards of MTV, a music cable channel called the Emmy Award in the music video world, and Best Pop and Best Choreography at VMA.
