K-pop Sensation Achieves Longest Streak for a Solo Album on the Chart

Big Hit Music

RM, the multitalented leader of global phenomenon BTS, has once again secured a coveted spot on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart with his debut solo album "Indigo." The album's reentry at No. 53 marks RM's triumphant return after approximately six months, as tweeted by Billboard on Monday in the US.

The resurgence of "Indigo" on the main albums chart was largely driven by the release of its vinyl version, which impressively claimed the second position on Billboard's top-selling vinyl albums chart. As a result, the album has now extended its stay on the Billboard 200 chart to an impressive seven weeks - a historic milestone for a K-pop solo album.

"Indigo," a 10-track masterpiece, initially made its mark in December of last year when it debuted on the chart at an impressive No. 15. Just two weeks later, it surged to an even higher No. 3 position, securing the record for the highest spot attained by a K-pop solo artist at the time. This meteoric rise was fueled by robust physical album sales and the album's lead track, "Wild Flower (feat. Youjeen)," which made a notable appearance on the Hot 100 at No. 83.

RM's solo career has been met with unwavering enthusiasm from fans and critics alike, showcasing the artist's exceptional artistry and musical prowess outside of BTS. With "Indigo" continuing to make waves on the Billboard 200, RM's impact on the global music scene remains undeniable.

As RM's remarkable solo journey continues to captivate audiences worldwide, the achievement of a seven-week streak on the Billboard 200 stands as a testament to his enduring artistry and boundless talent. As BTS and its members continue to shatter records and redefine the music industry, RM's solo success adds yet another milestone to the group's legacy as one of the most influential acts in modern music history.
