The renewed momentum carried over to “ARIRANG,” which jumped 17 places to No. 9 on the Billboard 200. The move gives the album another week inside the top 10, months into its chart run.

The timing follows a high-profile stretch for BTS. The group recently performed “Dynamite” during the 2026 FIFA World Cup final halftime show, putting its catalog back in front of a massive global audience. Several tracks from “ARIRANG,” including “NORMAL” and “SWIM,” picked up fresh chart activity in the aftermath.

“NORMAL” has also received a new push of its own, with a Korean-language release and music video arriving earlier this month.

That renewed attention has followed BTS across its current tour. After playing Stade de France in Paris, “ARIRANG” climbed to No. 3 on France’s albums chart.

Next up is New York, where BTS will play MetLife Stadium on Aug. 1 and 2 as the North American leg of the “ARIRANG” world tour gets underway.
