Boy band Tomorrow X Together remained in the top three of the Billboard 200 albums chart for two weeks in a row with its latest EP “The Name Chapter: Temptation” (2023).
 

This will be the second time for a K-pop artist to accomplish such achievement after boy band BTS, according to Tomorrow X Together's agency BigHit Music on Monday.
 
Billboard's revealed Sunday that the boy band’s fifth EP has landed at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 starting Feb. 18, two ranks down from No. 1 on the week of Feb. 11 chart.
 
“The Name Chapter: Temptation” sold over 2 million copies in the first week of its release, making Tomorrow X Together the youngest group in K-pop to achieve double-million seller status in the first week of an EP's release.
 
The band received four first-place awards from weekly music shows with the EP, including on the SBS music show Inkigayo last Sunday. The EP also topped Oricon's weekly album chart upon release, making it the first time for a foreign artist to have seven albums consecutively reach the No. 1 spot on the chart.
