The finale of BTS's "Love Yourself" trilogy came 74th on the Billboard 200 chart for the week of Dec. 29, up eight notches from a week earlier.

It was the 17th week in a row that "Answer" has ranked in the chart of the most popular 200 albums since it debuted atop the list in early September, the longest week for any K-pop record.

It also topped Billboard's World Albums chart where other BTS albums, "Love Yourself: Tear" and "Love Yourself: Her," took the second and third place respectively.
BTS also claimed No. 1 on the Billboard Social 50 chart for the 76th consecutive week, the longest run in the chart's history. (Yonhap)
