BTS have topped two year-end charts on Billboard Japan!

To bring the year 2021 to a close, Billboard Japan recently released its official year-end charts, including 'Top Artists' and 'Top Albums'. Both charts reflect scores from the entire year of 2021, and K-Pop's very own BTS landed at #1 on both! In the cast of the 'Top Albums' chart, BTS reigned at #1 with their Japanese-language compilation album, 'The Best'. 

Additionally, "Dynamite" was ranked # 2 on 'Top Streaming Songs',  followed by "Butter" at #6, and "Permission To Dance" at #18.

Congratulations, BTS!
