Music fans have been treated to a healthy dose of K-pop's indie-folk side with Bolbbalgan4's new EP earning the duo their very first showing on the charts.
Bolbbalgan4 make their first appearance on a Billboard chart thanks to their Red Diary Page. 1 debuting at No. 9 on the World Albums ranking dated Oct. 21, 2017. While BTS continue to reign on the chart as Love Yourself: Her celebrates its third week at No. 1 on World Albums, Bolbbalgan4 can claim the second-highest selling K-pop album in America this week thanks to their top 10 placement.
Since their introduction on Korean singing competition Superstar K6 in 2014 to signing as a duo, Bolbbalgan4 has slowly but consistently become a major chart force in their country. Red Planet, their debut full-length from August 2016, helped them gain unexpected, mainstream adoration thanks to its lush, jazz-inspired single "Galaxy," leading to a string of chart-toppers that continue with Red Diary Page.
