BTS and ARMY truly share a beautiful bond. Every song that BTS releases becomes a superhit thanks to ARMY’s support and BTS’ talent. For 7 consecutive and historic weeks, Butter had held the 1st spot on the Billboards Hot 100 Chart. Finally, another single has managed to overtake it. As it turns out, BTS’ ‘Permission to Dance’ is the one which has taken ‘Butter’ position.
This has made BTS the first band in history to gain four #1 debuts!
