Stray Kids scored the second No.1 album on the Billboard 200. 

According to Billboard on October 16th, Stray Kids' latest release 'MAXIDENT' debuted atop its Billboard 200 chart. It was reported 117,000 equivalent album units were earned in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 13, making it the group's second chart-topper following 'ODDINARY' back in March. 

This marks the fourth album by a K-Pop artist to top the chart and two of them belong to Stray Kids. Stray Kids is the only Korean artist to lead the Billboard 200 twice in 2022. 

Congratulations to Stray Kids!
