In May 2018, beginning with ‘Love Your Self All Tiers’, the five albums released over two years and six months took first place, holding the first record in Korean, Asian, and languages other than English. As a group, the Beatles of England, who produced five No. 1 Billboard 200 albums in two years and five months, from ‘Yesterday and Today’ in July 1966 to ‘White Album’ in December ’68, and among all the singers. , this year in 2017. It is a great record following the American rapper Future, which was reduced to 7 months.
According to data from Nielsen Music, ‘BE’, which was released on the 20th, recorded 242,000 points in the album sales index during the first week of its release. Actual album sales accounted for 70% with 177,000 points, followed by digital music download and streaming scores of 35,000 and 30,000, respectively. Billboard considers that if you download 10 music songs or stream 1,250 times for a fee, you are considered to have bought a real record, and the first week of streaming is 28.56 million.
As a group, it is the second highest score this year after the 4th regular album ‘Map of the Sol: 7’ released in February. ‘Map of the Sun: 7 recorded a total of 422,000 points, including 34,700 actual album sales. Billboard noted, “Unlike other albums that posted high album sales, diversified songwriting methods, and introduced limited editions, ‘BE’ can only be used in one version, such as a real one and a digital one.” The last album consisted of a total of 5 types, including 4 real and 1 digital.
The first week of sales based on Hanteo Chart was 2.26 million units. During the same period, it was 33% less than the 3.37 million copies registered by ‘Mapa del Sol: 7’, but it seems that neither the agency nor the members pay much attention to it. With their first English single ‘Dynamite’ released in August, they finally rose to Billboard’s ‘Hot 100’ singles chart, allowing them to freely release the music they want to play freely due to pressure on their ratings. The fact that 5 of the 11 foreign-language albums that topped the Billboard in history seems to have given us strength.
Professor Gyu-Tak Lee from George Mason University in Korea said: “Because the exciting disco style ‘Dynamite’ was a huge success, we could have released a song as the sequel, but we chose the quiet ‘Life Goes On’ as title song “. We focus on delivering messages that are essential in today’s age, such as comforting and encouraging young people suffering from corona, such as the theme “ How to travel in my room. ” It was analyzed that it was an extremely artistic movement without focusing on commerciality. ”
