Korean pop band BTS are popping up all over the Billboard charts.

The seven-member group's latest album The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Pt. 2 debuted at number 171 on the Billboard 200, with over 5,000 copies sold in the U.S. during the first week.

BTS also ranked 98th on the list of top album sales in the U.S and earned top spots on the Heatseekers Albums and World Albums charts.

The album's lead single "Run" landed at number one on the World Digital Songs ranking, with nine other group tracks also sprinkled throughout the list.

The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Pt. 2 was released on Nov. 29, and BTS are actively promoting on the major network music shows in Korea. They won their first trophy during the Dec. 8 episode of SBS MTV's The Show.

BTS are also confirmed to perform at the 2015 KBS Song Festival on Dec. 30 at the Gocheok Sky Dome.
