With Indigo, the rapper has now become the highest-charting Korean solo album to date on the Billboard 200, overtaking TWICE member Nayeon’s solo debut mini album IM NAYEON (which peaked at No. 7).
RM is also the first member of BTS to achieve such a feat. Earlier this year, fellow BTS member J-Hope peaked on the same chart at No. 17 with his first solo album Jack in the Box.
Meanwhile, SZA’s SOS spends a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart after debuting at No. 1 last week with the second-largest streaming week ever for an album by a female artist.
As per the outlet, the set earned the equivalent of 180,000 album sales in the U.S., down 43% but still riding high after entering atop the list last week with 318,000 units. Taylor Swift’s Midnights sits at No. 2 with an increase of 31% in album sales, credits to holiday season.
