BTS' 'Arirang' drops to No. 3 on Billboard 200 in 4th week
SEOUL, April 20 (Yonhap) -- K-pop megastars BTS' latest album, "Arirang," has slipped to No. 3 on the Billboard main albums chart after topping the U.S. chart for three consecutive weeks.
The South Korean group's fifth studio album placed behind country singer Ella Langley's "Dandelion" and Morgan Wallen's "I'm the Problem" on the Billboard 200, Billboard said in a chart preview Sunday (U.S. time).
During the latest tracking week, "Arirang" earned 78,000 equivalent album units, a 37 percent decline from the previous week.
The Billboard 200 ranks the most popular albums of the week in the United States, measured by equivalent album units comprising physical and digital sales, as well as streaming and digital track downloads converted into album sales.
"Arirang" previously made history as the first album by a K-pop act to spend three weeks at No. 1.
Led by the lead single "Swim," the 14-track album marks the band's first release after a four-year hiatus caused by its members' mandatory military service.
