BTS' 'Fake Love' Returns To No. 1 On Charts

'Fake Love' tops World Digital Song Sales chart despite BTS's hiatus.

BTS, the popular South Korean boy band, has once again made waves on the music charts, despite being on a musical hiatus. Their hit song 'Fake Love' has reclaimed the top spot on the World Digital Song Sales chart, showcasing the unwavering support of their dedicated fan base, known as the ARMY.

'Fake Love' originally featured on their album Love Yourself: Tear, which was recently reissued, leading to a resurgence in its popularity. The song, released in May 2018, played a pivotal role in propelling BTS to international fame, marking their first top 10 hit on the Hot 100 chart.

The success of 'Fake Love' is evident as it continues to garner sales in the U.S., with an additional 2,705 copies sold last week alone. This brings the total sales of the track in the country to over 124,000 copies since its release.

In addition to claiming the top spot on the World Digital Song Sales chart, 'Fake Love' has also re-entered the Digital Song Sales ranking at No. 13. The song's resurgence can be attributed to the reissue of Love Yourself: Tear on vinyl, which has been well-received by fans.

BTS has solidified their position as chart-toppers, with 'Fake Love' marking their 37th No. 1 on the World Digital Song Sales chart. The group's impressive track record includes a total of 117 top 10 hits, further cementing their status as one of the most successful acts in the history of the chart.

Despite their current hiatus, BTS continues to dominate the music scene, showcasing the enduring popularity of their music and the unwavering support of their global fan base. With 'Fake Love' reclaiming the top spot on the charts, BTS once again proves why they are considered a powerhouse in the music industry.
