BTS, TWICE
Despite a turbulent political situation between Korea and Japan, BTS and TWICE are still slaying charts.

BTS' 'Fake Love/Airplane Pt. 2' ranked #1 on Oricon's Weekly Singles Chart with 454,829 points for the week of November 5th-11th. They're the first ever non-Japanese artist to hit over 400,000 points on the first day.

SEE ALSO: Based on the latest remarks by HYBE's top officers, BTS may not resume group activities in 2025


TWICE's 6th mini-album 'YES or YES' ranked #1 for the Oricon Weekly Album Chart, selling over 33,000 copies in one day. It's a pretty big feat considering that it's not a Japanese release, but a Korean one. 

Congratulations to TWICE and BTS.
