is a song remixed by BTS participating in the song'Savage Love'.



Billboard said that Savage Love's remixed version of BTS took the top spot in the Billboard Hot 100 this week.



The original song was released in June by the collaboration of US R&B singer Derrulo and New Zealand's top 10 producer Josh 685, and a remix version was released earlier this month in which BTS added Korean lyrics and sang chorus and rap.



The original song was ranked 8th in the Hot 100 last week, but when the remixed version of BTS was released, the number of downloads increased more than 8 times, hitting the top of the list at once.



Billboard said that it has placed the BTS name on the rankings considering that a significant portion of the sales volume of the music source is not the original song but a BTS remix version.



With this, BTS achieved a great record of simultaneously posting two songs of Savage Love and Dynamite on the Billboard #1 and #2.



BTS became the fifth group in the history of Billboard, following legendary groups such as The Beatles and Buses, to simultaneously dominate the first and second places on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.



This is 11 years since the famous American hip-hop group Black Eyed Peace in 2009.



Meanwhile, Chinese netizens' attack on BTS's feelings of winning the Korean War is an atmosphere that eases after a day as criticism of nationalistic intolerance rises.
