Beginning with the 'World Albums Artists' chart, BTS ranked 1st place, while G-Dragon was in 5th place as a solo artist. His group Big Bang followed suit in 6th place and EXO also appeared in 7th place.
Next up was the 'World Albums' chart as BTS popped up in 2nd place this time with 'Love Yourself: Her', G-Dragon's solo EP 'Kwon Ji Yong' slid in at 5th place, as Big Bang's 'MADE' album ranked in 6th place. EXO's 'The War: The 4th Album' was positioned at 7th place. Jumping down one space was BTS' 'Wings' at 9th place as well as 'You Never Walk Alone' at the 11th spot.
As expected, BTS topped the 'Social 50' list being the #1 most talked about artist on social media, winning an award for 'Top Social Artist' at the Billboard Music Awards this past May. Fellow K-Pop group EXO also demonstrated their strong presence in 35th place, with Seventeen taking the 41st spot.
BTS ranked an impressive 10th place on the 'Top Artists' chart in the midst of various talented musicians, being the sole K-Pop artist on this chart.
Big Hit's popular group ranked 2nd place this time on 'Top Artists - Duo/Group' chart.
Continuing BTS' domination, their album 'Love Yourself: Her' took over 32nd place in the 'Independent Albums' chart, representing K-Pop on a global scale.
What an extraordinary year in the K-Pop industry! Congratulations to all the artists!
