These Are The 22 Highest-Charting K-Pop Albums Ever On The Billboard 200 Chart
The Billboard 200 chart is a weekly chart that lists the top 200 best-performing albums in the United States as of the week it’s posted. The albums and EPs that make it onto the chart are based mostly on physical and digital sales, and since, unlike the World Albums chart, it includes American artists as well as international, it’s not as common for K-Pop artists to make it on the list.
However, there have still been many that have over the last couple of years, some even reaching #1! These are the 22 K-Pop albums that have ranked the highest on the Billboard 200 chart in its history.
