BTS Places Four Catalog Albums on Billboard World Albums Chart

August 30, 2026 — Billboard's World Albums chart for the week ending Aug 29 showed four BTS catalog titles still charting: the 2022 anthology 'Proof' at No. 7 in its 219th week, 2018's 'Love Yourself: Answer' re-entering at No. 10 for a 202nd non-consecutive week, the Japanese edition of 'Map of the Soul: 7 ~The Journey~' at No. 12 in week 42, and 'Love Yourself: Tear' at No. 22 in its 221st week. Stray Kids held the chart's No. 1 spot for a second consecutive week. The sustained catalog presence comes during a pause in the ARIRANG World Tour's North American leg between the Chicago Soldier Field stand (Aug 27-28) and the Los Angeles SoFi Stadium dates (Sept 1, 2, 5, 6).
