K-Pop Fans Are Both Confused And Entertained By Billboard Charts’ Now-Deleted Tweet
K-Pop fans are usually incredibly active on Billboard. Many of Billboard’s frequent updates include K-Pop artists, songs, and albums that K-Pop fans have been streaming.
But while K-Pop fans are typically excited to see updates, they were left incredibly confused by Billboard Chart’s Twitter sharing a unique list of the “Hot Trending Songs.”
The No. 1 spot went to BTS Jimin and Ha Sungwoon‘s “With You,” but the image suggested that Jimin and Ha Sung Woon had collaborated on BLACKPINK Lisa‘s “LALISA” instead.
oh yea i love lalisa by jimin and sungwoon

Jimin and Ha Sung Woon’s “With You” was listed as No. 2, but the artist credit was given to ATEEZ, who, ironically, have a song of the same name.

Other unexpected song attributions included SEVENTEEN‘s “_WORLD,” apparently having been recorded by ENHYPEN.

BTS J-Hope‘s “Arson” was seemingly sung by BLACKPINK’s Lisa.

BTS Jin‘s OST “Yours” has unexpectedly featured Benny Blanco, Snoop Dogg, and the rest of BTS’s vocal line.

BTS’s “Yet To Come” must have been exclusively recorded by Jin.

Although the tweet has now been deleted, fans were understandably confused and amused by the very incorrect data.

But it didn’t take long before there were jokes about how the Billboard Chart account made some “Bad Decisions.”
They made some bad decisions 💀
