K-pop sensation, BTS has become the first South Korean and Asian band to rule the Billboard’s singles chart, hitting the number one spot with their English song, ‘Dynamite’.
To reach the top, BTS beat American heavyweights like Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift along with Cardi B’s hit ‘WAP’ that held the spot for two weeks. This achievement comes in after the Korean boy band reached the Billboard Hot 100’s fourth slot in March with its song ‘On’.
Although three of BTS’ albums have hit number one on Billboard’s album charts, this is their first Hot 100 top single. Excited about this achievement, on the seven member act’s official Twitter account, this happy news was announced:
