Their latest album helped BTS become the first artist in Korea to achieve this in 18 years.
On October 11th, Gaon, a very prestigious album chart in Korea, announced the top 100 best selling albums in last September. Notably, BTS’s album “Love Yourself: Answer” received the “Double Million” certification as over 2 million copies have been sold after 36 days of its release.
This is the first album to achieve this since Gaon’s new certification system was opened at the beginning of this year. BTS is also the second Korean artist to release more than 2 million copies for an album after Jo Sung Mo, who sold nearly 2.05 million copies of the album “Let Me Love” released in 2000.
