K-pop sensation BTS has clinched the number one spot in the comprehensive artist sales category of Japan’s prestigious Oricon Reiwa Era Rankings, their management company, Big Hit Music, announced on April 21. This milestone marks the first time a foreign artist has ever led the overall rankings since the Reiwa era began in May 2019.

The rankings were determined based on total sales from May 2019 to January this year, encompassing various formats such as singles, albums, music DVDs, Blu-rays, digital singles and albums, and streaming. BTS dominated with their diverse portfolio, contributing significantly across all formats. The group’s sales were primarily made up of albums (36.6%), followed by music DVDs and Blu-rays (33.8%), and streaming (25%).

BTS has achieved unparalleled success in multiple categories, securing the top spot among foreign artists in eight different sectors including combined singles, albums, individual formats, and streaming. Their record-breaking album ‘BTS, THE BEST” sold over 1.05 million copies, making it the only album by a foreign artist to reach the million-seller mark in Japan during the Reiwa era.

The achievement underscores BTS’s growing influence and popularity in the international music scene, particularly in Japan, where they have continued to break records and set new benchmarks for success.

Congratulations BTS!
