TWICE‘s mini-album “READY TO BE” re-enters the Billboard 200, making it their first album to chart for 10 weeks, showcasing their international appeal and ongoing success.
TWICE, the K-pop girl group sensation, has once again made waves on the international music scene as their mini-album “READY TO BE” re-enters the Billboard 200 chart. This marks a significant milestone for the group, as it is their first album to chart for 10 weeks.
Initially released in March, “READY TO BE” had an impressive debut, securing the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200. This achievement was historic as TWICE recorded the biggest U.S. sales week for any female K-pop artist to date.
As TWICE continues their North American tour, the mini-album has regained momentum and climbed back up on Billboard’s U.S. charts. For the week ending on July 1, “READY TO BE” re-entered the Billboard 200 at No. 182. This accomplishment places TWICE in an elite group, as “READY TO BE” becomes only the third K-pop girl group album in history to chart for 10 weeks on the Billboard 200. The other two albums that share this distinction are BLACKPINK’s “THE ALBUM” and “BORN PINK.”
In addition to its success on the Billboard 200, “READY TO BE” has also performed well on other charts. It maintained its position at No. 8 on Billboard’s World Albums chart and made a notable climb to No. 11 on the Top Current Album Sales chart and No. 13 on the Top Album Sales chart.
TWICE’s overall success as artists is further highlighted as they climbed back up to No. 67 on Billboard’s Artist 100, marking their 34th week on the chart.
This achievement reflects TWICE’s growing international appeal and the global impact of K-pop. With their captivating performances and chart-topping music, TWICE continues to solidify their place in the international music industry.
