\"SpotifySpotify ‘Global Countdown Chart’ [Provided by Spotify]<\/p>\n

The group BTS’s 5th studio album ‘Arirang (ARIRANG)’ has surpassed 3 million pre-saves on the world’s largest music platform, Spotify, as announced by their agency Big Hit Music on the 4th.<\/p>\n

‘Arirang’ recorded 1 million pre-saves just two days after the start, and on the fourth day, it exceeded 2 million, showing a steep upward trend.<\/p>\n

Considering the current growth trend, the industry is focused on whether it can surpass the all-time highest pre-save record of 6 million held by pop star Taylor Swift’s 12th album ‘The Life of a Showgirl’.<\/p>\n

‘Arirang’ has ranked No. 1 on the ‘Global Countdown Chart’, which aggregates pre-save figures for upcoming albums and singles, for two consecutive weeks, proving its global interest.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, on HYBE’s fan platform Weverse, there has been a phenomenon where the number of paid membership subscribers has surged nearly threefold since the announcement of BTS’s new album release and world tour.<\/p>\n

BTS’s 5th studio album ‘Arirang’ will be officially released at 1 PM on the 20th of next month. They are scheduled to hold a large-scale free concert at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul the day after the release, on March 21st.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1 Million in Two Days, 2 Million on Day Four… Ranked No. 1 on Global Countdown Chart for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":275635,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[142579,142574,142573,66507,1845,146,142576,142578,85,46,142580,409,142575,20964,9828,2070,142577,121397],"class_list":["post-275634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-3-million-surpassed","tag-arirang","tag-bangtan-sonyeondan","tag-big-hit-music","tag-bts","tag-entertainment","tag-gwanghwamun-concert","tag-gwanghwamunconcert","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-march-20th-comeback","tag-music","tag-pre-save","tag-record-breaking","tag-spotify","tag-taylor-swift","tag-taylorswift","tag-weverse"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=275634"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275634\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/275635"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=275634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=275634"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=275634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
