The Only 51 K-Pop Albums That Have Made The Top 10 Of The “Billboard 200” Chart
It’s been notoriously difficult for K-Pop songs to make it onto the “Billboard 200” chart, let alone into the top 10 of the list. The first K-Pop album to rank in the top 10 didn’t achieve that accomplishment until 2017, and it’s only been in the last couple of years that more artists have ranked high on the coveted chart! Here are all 51 K-Pop albums that have made it into the top 10 of the “Billboard 200” chart.
