Stray Kids Surpassed BTS's Jimin by Reclaiming No. 1 Spot on Billboard’s World Albums Chart

Stray Kids have returned to the top of Billboard’s World Albums chart, reclaiming the No. 1 spot with their hit EP Ate. The K-pop sensation’s latest release has now spent a total of seven weeks at the summit, a testament to the group’s growing international fanbase and consistent success.

Last week, Ate was sitting in second place, with BTS’s Jimin leading the chart with his solo project Muse. However, Jimin’s reign at the top has come to an end, as Muse moves down to the No. 2 position. While both albums have enjoyed 12 weeks on the chart, Stray Kids' Ate has clearly maintained its momentum, powered by its lead single “Chk Chk Boom.”

The song continues to make waves, holding steady at No. 10 on the World Digital Song Sales chart, further fueling interest in the EP. Stray Kids have once again proven they can dominate the charts, even amidst tough competition from fellow K-pop superstars. 

Fans of Stray Kids have even more to look forward to as the group prepares to release their new full-length album Giant next month. Given their impressive track record of chart-topping releases, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the group score yet another No. 1 with the upcoming album. With Ate still thriving and Giant on the horizon, Stray Kids are showing no signs of slowing down.
