BTS Achieves Record-Breaking Number Of Stock Pre-Orders For "Map Of The Soul: Persona"

Just one week after announcing their highly-anticipated comeback, BTS is already soaring to new heights!

On March 19, music distributor iriver announced that BTS had broken their own record for stock pre-orders with their upcoming album “Map of the Soul: Persona.”

The new album racked up an impressive 2,685,030 stock pre-orders in just five days (from March 13 to 17), smashing BTS’s previous record of 1,511,910 stock pre-orders for “Love Yourself: Answer.”

Additionally, not only did “Map of the Soul: Persona” hit No. 1 on Amazon’s CD & Vinyl Best Sellers list shortly after becoming available for pre-order, but the album is now enjoying its seventh consecutive day at the top of the chart.

“Map of the Soul: Persona” will be released worldwide on April 12, with BTS premiering their new title track on NBC’s legendary late-night comedy show “Saturday Night Live” in the United States the following day.

Congratulations to BTS on their amazing achievement!
