BTS has set a new record in England.


The boys' "Idol" from 'Love Yourself: Answer" has ranked #21 on UK's 'Official Chart'. It's a new record, doubly higher from their last record at #42 with "Fake Love". It's the highest ever for a K-pop group, not to mention that a K-pop group has entered top 40 for the first time.
