'BTS and ARMY are playing fair to conquer Billboard chart'

K-pop behemoth BTS has etched its name into history, with its summer banger “Butter” becoming the Billboard main singles chart's longest-running No. 1 song of 2021. Following its May 21 release, “Butter” reigned atop the chart for seven weeks in a row before yielding the spot to another BTS anthem, “Permission to Dance,” dropped July 9. The former, however, dethroned the latter only a week later and has since ruled the chart for nine non-consecutive weeks as of Monday (local time.) The K-pop megastars have hit an apex in their career with this feat, but their accomplishment deserves more attention for many reasons, according to industry experts.
