BTS Sets Another 'First': Receives 'Platinum' Certification in Italy

BTS has become the first K-pop artist to receive a platinum certification from the Federation of the Italian Music Industry (FIMI).

This comes six months after receiving a gold certification last April.

"Arirang" is also enjoying a long-running success in the United States.

It ranked 57th on the latest Billboard 200, the main Billboard album chart, staying on the chart for 32 consecutive weeks.
