According to Gaon Chart on June 8, BTS's latest album 'Love Yourself: Tear' has sold over 1,664,041 copies since its release back on May 18, just two weeks ago.


This is the highest monthly sales volume in the history of Gaon Chart (begun in 2010) as well as the first time in exactly 17 years and 8 months that an album has sold over 1.66 million copies in under a month. The last time was back in September of 2000, by Jo Sung Mo and his 3rd album.

Meanwhile, BTS have been getting ready for their annual event, '2018 BTS FESTA' by releasing several teaser images and videos.

Congratulations!
