The K-Pop band that is sweeping across the world like a tidal wave has beaten yet another record.
According to latest figures from Billboard, BTS placed number one on the Social 50 chart, making it their 57th consecutive week on there.
This is significant, as BTS has overtaken the previous record of 56 consecutive weeks at No. 1, held by Justin Bieber.
Needless to say, the ARMY is proud:
Justin have had his years and for a long good time. Someone else as much talented should ofc get the chance. Justin had a GREAT recognition for his music for a LONG PERIOD. Im glad asf Bangtan stepped up. They won billboard in two rows- pic.twitter.com/eCdH1sr3gg
