While physical album sales are down globally, many Asian music markets continue to retain high sales. Comparatively, BTS' album sales in Korea impressively outsold the bestselling album of the year stateside: Taylor Swift’s Reputation recorded 1,035,000 physical copies sold in the States. It was the only album to sell over 1 million physical copies in the U.S last year according to Nielsen.

Anybody who thinks BTS are going to be bigger than Taylor Swift worldwide is delusional tbh. They have bops but they only appeal to ‘quirky’ teenage girls.
