Celebrating their 10th anniversary, Twice has achieved significant milestones on the Billboard charts as ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ sparks buzz. The group’s special album ‘TEN: The Story Goes On’ entered at No. 11 on the ‘Billboard 200’ chart dated October 25, while their previous album ‘This Is For’ returned at No. 117. These placements mark Twice’s tenth entry on the Billboard 200, a record for any K-pop girl group.<\/p>\n

Billboard reported that ‘TEN: The Story Goes On’ debuted at No. 11 on the ‘Billboard 200’, while ‘This Is For’ re-entered at No. 117. This achievement marks the group’s tenth appearance<\/a> on this chart, a significant milestone for K-pop acts. As noted by Yonhap News, Twice stands out as the first K-pop girl group to reach this landmark.<\/p>\n

Twice’s new single ‘Strategy’ reached No. 63 on the “Hot 100”, and another track, ‘Takedown’, secured No. 67. Both songs commemorate their decade-long career and represent the group’s most sustained presence on the chart since their English-language hit, ‘The Feels’.<\/p>\n

Analysts note that Twice’s double placement demonstrates their ability to balance diverse language markets without relying on international media tie-ins.<\/p>\n

‘TEN: The Story Goes On’ also achieved high placements on the “Top Album Sales” and “Top Current Album Sales” charts, debuting at No. 2 in both, with only Taylor Swift’s ‘The Life of a Showgirl’<\/a> ahead that week. ‘This Is For’ climbed to No. 18 on the “Top Current Album Sales” chart, maintaining a 14-week presence on the Billboard 200.<\/p>\n

Twice advanced on the “Artist 100” chart, securing No. 8 and extending their status as the longest-charting female K-pop act, with a total of 64 weeks on the list.<\/p>\n

In related news, Seventeen’s subunit S.Coups x Mingyu released their first mini album, ‘Hype Vibes’, which debuted at No. 71 on the Billboard 200, the highest debut for a K-pop unit album. The duo also reached No. 2 on the “World Albums” chart and led the “Emerging Artists” list, supported by first-week sales surpassing 887,000 copies.<\/p>\n

These developments are fueling a conversation about the global rise of smaller K-pop acts finding mainstream recognition. The increasing presence of K-pop groups and subunits on international charts reflects changing dynamics in the music industry and broader global appeal.<\/p>\n
