IT IS THE MOMENT! J-Hope, by BTS, reached an unprecedented milestone in his career as a soloist on Billboard. That’s because the idol’s special album, “HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1”, debuted in 5th place on the Top 200 Albums chart, reaching the artist’s highest solo position on the chart.
The achievement was possible because “HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1” sold 50 thousand units during the week ending April 4, a number made up of the sale of 44 thousand copies on traditional records, 4 thousand on streaming (SEA), and 2 thousand in track equivalent albums (TEA), according to Luminate (via Soompi).
