As charts for the first half of the year are being released one after another as it enters July 2020, the Gaon Chart, a Korean official music chart, also recently released its album chart for the first half of 2020.

The sales volume of physical albums such as tapes, LPs, and CDs is estimated to be from January to June this year. Singers from the Big Hit Entertainment (Big Hit) label, led by the world-famous group BTS, are overwhelmingly active on the chart. Four out of 10 albums sold in the top 100 were by Big Hit label singers.

- Album sales have surpassed 4.26 million to 56.17 million copies, reaching 14 albums in the top 100.

The "pandemic" incident of covid 19 has had a significant impact on the music industry. In the aftermath of the covid 19, which has spread around the world, singers postponed their comeback and adjusted their original schedule for the release of the album. Even if the plan goes as planned, showcases, fan signing events, and performances cannot be held as they used to be, so there have been frequent cases of replacing them online or even canceling them if they are difficult.

The same is true of overseas countries. According to the first half of 2020 report released by Nielsen Music on the 10th, sales of real albums in the U.S. in the first half of this year fell about 20% from the same period last year.

Nevertheless, the performance of 'Global Superstar' BTS is unrivaled. The fourth full-length album "MAP OF THE SOUL: 7," released on February 21, sold a total of 552,000 copies, making it the best-selling album in the U.S. in the first half of this year.

BTS ranked No. 1 in cumulative album sales in Korea with the album. With an album that looks back on seven years since its debut, "MAP OF THE SOUL: 7," which tells the true story of BTS, sold a total of 4,265,617 copies until June. On the first day of its release, it sold more than 2.65 million copies, and sold 4.11 million copies in nine days, breaking the record for the most sales by a Korean singer. For the first time since Gaon Chart's certification, it has also obtained the Quadruple Million certification.

BTS posted a total of 14 albums in the top 100 of Gaon Chart's "First Half of 2020 Albums Chart."
