Prior to the full-fledged launch of “FESTA,” the group experienced a double whammy: their new song “Butter,” which was released on May 21, debuted at No. 1 in the latest rankings (June 5) of the HOT 100, the main singles chart of the U.S. Billboard. According to Billboard, “Butter” was streamed 32.2 million times and downloaded 242,800 times in the U.S. in the week from the 21st to the 27th, and the radio show had 18.1 million listeners through May 30th.

With this No. 1 ranking, BTS added a fourth No. 1 song, “HOT100,” for a total of six No. 1s, a remarkable achievement.

In October last year, BTS achieved their second No. 1 hit with a remix version of “Savage Love” performed in collaboration with American singer Jason Derulo, and their third No. 1 hit with “Life Goes On,” the title track of their album “BE” released in November last year.
