First, Stray Kids secured the highest position among KPOP groups on the Billboard Top Artists Chart, ranking at #73. Their albums Rockstar and Eight landed at #123 and #139, respectively, on the Billboard 200 Year-End Chart. Notably, in the Top Album Sales category, Rockstar ranked 4th and Eight 9th, setting the highest record among domestic artists. These milestones reaffirm KPOP's growing influence on the global stage.
No discussion of KPOP would be complete without mentioning BTS members Jungkook and Jimin. Jungkook solidified his presence as a solo artist with his first album, Golden, ranking at #80 on the Billboard 200.

Meanwhile, Jimin made waves with his second solo album, MUSE, which also entered the Billboard 200, gifting fans with yet another memorable moment.
Their achievements are more than just numbers—they reflect their distinctive artistry and the immense support of global fans. Considering that Jungkook's album was released relatively recently, there’s plenty of potential for even more impressive records in the near future.
Another noteworthy name on the charts is the girl group LE SSERAFIM. They ranked #46 on the Global 200 Artists, achieving the highest position for any KPOP girl group. Additionally, they placed #26 on the Global (Excluding the U.S.) Artists Chart and #8 on the World Albums Artists Chart, cementing their influence far beyond the stage.
Their first English digital single, Perfect Night, ranked #135 on the Global 200, while their highly anticipated mini album, EASY, secured #48 on the U.S. Top Current Album Sales Chart. It’s not just their popularity but also their musicality that continues to captivate listeners worldwide.
