BTS has once again entered "Billboard 200" with "You Never Walk Alone," making them the first K-Pop act to rank four albums on the chart.

According to Allkpop, "You Never Walk Alone" entered the album chart at no. 61, falling behind artists Adele, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars and others. Previously, BTS ranked their "The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2" album at no. 171, while "Young Forever" took no. 107 of "Billboard 200."

Last October, BTS climbed up at no. 26 with their "WINGS" album, surpassing 2NE1's record for "Crush" at no. 61. Not only that, their newest single "Spring Day" has made it to Billboard's "Bubbling Under Hot 100 Chart."

Aside from their charisma, the BTS members thought it was their chemistry that made them popular among local and international K-Pop fans. "We have great chemistry, and we think this is our biggest strength," Jin said as per Soompi.

The idol continued, "We were really surprised once when we were asked to write down the secret to our success, and all the members wrote down "chemistry between the members.""

In the midst of their ongoing success, Taehyung only hopes for one thing this year, and that is for them to make it to "Billboard Hot 100 Chart."

On the other hand, BTS did not fail their fans at the 6th Gaon Chart where they were given the Artist of the Year (Album - Fourth Quarter) and V LIVE Global Popularity. Not only that, Son Seung Deuk was also recognized as the person behind BTS' excellent choreography.

Other winners at the 6th Gaon Chart include GOT7 and EXO for Artist of the Year (album); GFRIEND, MAMAMOO, TWICE, BLACKPINK, BIGBANG for Artist of the Year (Song); SHINee for World Hallyu Star; and SECHSKIES for K-Pop Contribution of the Year.

Congratulations to all winners!
