This also means that he has achieved a chart position higher than any Big Bang album or even fellow group member G-Dragon on the 'Billboard 200', which is an incredible feat in itself.  Previously, G-Dragon's 'One of a Kind' and 'Coup D'etat' ranked at #161 and #182 respectively, proving these two members to be quite influential in the American market.


Taeyang is also ranked first on Billboard's Heatseekers Album and World Album Charts.


Congratulations to Taeyang on this impressive achievement!
