Tomorrow X Together – The Name Chapter: Temptation
After making history as the first K-pop boy band to headline Lollapalooza, TXT scored their first No. 1 album in early 2023 and gave us another catchy single with “Sugar Rush Ride”.
Stray Kids – 5-Star / Rock-Star
In the absence of BTS, Stray Kids emerged as the most popular K-pop band on the Billboard 200 this year and scored not one, but two No. 1 albums! 5-Star hit No. 1 with the largest week for a non-English album on the Billboard 200 in 2023. They later returned to the top spot with its follow-up Rock-Star.
NewJeans – Get Up
It’s only been a year since the girl group NewJeans was formed, and they’re already breaking new ground. Their second EP Get Up hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, in addition to selling over one million copies in South Korea.
Ateez – The World EP.Fin: Will
Ateez cemented K-pop domination on the Billboard 200 by soaring to No. 1 this week, with their latest album The World EP.Fin: Will, which they promoted with the hit single “Crazy Form”.

Several BTS members surprised us with new solo albums this year, and Jungkook’s Golden is shaping up to be the best one yet.

Jennie – “You & Me”

BTS’s Jung Kook is getting ready to drop his debut solo album Golden in November, and its rollout is truly amazing. After topping the charts with its lead single “Seven” ft. Latto, Jung Kook has given us another amazing hip-hop-infused collaboration with “3D” alongside Jack Harlow.

BTS’s V kicked off a new season by dropping his debut solo album Layover, which hit the shelves in early September. Its release was accompanied by a new single “Slow Dancing”, but this album produced several more amazing songs, including “Love Me Again” and “Rainy Days”.
