In a remarkable comeback, BTS' third full-length album, 'Love Yourself: Tear', reclaimed its position on the prestigious Billboard 200 chart. The album, originally released in 2018, resurfaced at number 92, marking its return after 5 years and 6 months.
'Love Yourself: Tear' not only re-emerged on the Billboard 200 but also secured impressive rankings on the 'World Album' and 'Top Album Sales' charts, landing at the 3rd and 5th place, respectively. The album's title track, "Fake Love", also made a significant impact, re-entering the 'World Digital Single Sales' chart at number one.
The resurgence of 'Love Yourself: Tear' can be attributed to its recent release on LP format, which began distribution in various countries earlier this year. The album's shipment in the United States in late February likely contributed to its strong performance on the Billboard charts. Additionally, the LP version of 'Love Yourself: Tear' debuted at the top spot on the 'Vinyl Album' chart.
