\n\t\u201cARMY made \u2018ARIRANG\u2019 the most streamed K-Pop album in Spotify history and the most streamed album in a single day in 2026. Favorite track so far?\u201d Spotify wrote on Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tARIRANG<\/em>, which dropped Friday (March 20)<\/a>, was already making waves before its release. Spotify noted that the album is one of the most pre-saved album Countdown Pages in platform history, with more than five million presaves.<\/p>\n

\n\tTo keep the momentum going, Spotify has partnered with BTS to offer fans immersive experiences and in-app activations. Highlights include a BTS Music Quiz, an album listening party, a private fan event in New York City, and a three-day cruise along Seoul\u2019s Han River.<\/p>\n

\n\tFeaturing 14 tracks produced by Diplo, Kevin Parker, Mike WiLL Made-It and Ryan Tedder, presents RM, Jin, Suga, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook in a more mature, artistically refined light.<\/p>\n

\n\tBTS last released a full-length album in 2020, when Be<\/em> debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. That year, the seven-member group also topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart with \u201cLife Goes On\u201d and \u201cDynamite,\u201d later returning to No. 1 with \u201cButter,\u201d \u201cPermission to Dance\u201d and \u201cMy Universe\u201d with Coldplay.<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the peak of their global dominance, the group\u2019s members began mandatory military service in South Korea, rolling out solo projects on a staggered schedule.<\/p>\n
