South Korean boy group Bangtan Sonyeondan (BTS)or Bangtan Boys is taking over Japan Tower Records as they continue to dominate the sales chart.

The band composed of seven young and energetic boys has been stirring the K-pop entertainment all the while with their cool music, charismatic and strong performances, and bright personality off-stage.

Bangtan Boys debuted with promotional single "No More Dream" under Big Hit Entertainment on June 2013 and has won "New Artist of the Year" in 2013 year-end award ceremonies.

They became one of the fastest groups to get popular in K-Pop taking into account the numerous groups debuting in the music industry nowadays. The boys of Bangtan also know how to grow their fanbase called ARMYs by taking their time to frequently update fans with goofy tweets and YouTube posts.

BTS successfully wrapped up their Korean promotions with their third mini-album "In the Mood for Love Pt. 1" which ranked high on Gaon's physical album sales with a steady increase even when they were up to big groups such as EXO and BIGBANG.

The group has just taken home five trophies on music shows with their title track "I Need U" and now they are back again to seize Japanese fans with their fourth and first original single "For You" that was just released on June 17.

Previously, pre-order sales chart revealed that the group ranked number one with their limited DVD "BTS Memories of 2014", number two on the DVD sales chart, and number three on the singles album charts with the said Japanese single.

Moreover, recent chart ranking shows that BTS had already settled at the topmost spot with "For You" on Oricon's Daily Chart with a multitude of 42,611 copies of the single being sold on the first day alone, and all editions of the single charting high within the top five spots on Japan Tower Records which proves to be a manifestation of how successful the group overseas has become.

The group's consistent quality and synchrony in their dance performances, and soulful powerful vocals make BTS one of the next big boy bands to watch out for in the future K-Pop.

Meanwhile, BTS is teasing fans again with releases of "Sick" concept photos for their follow-up promotions. The images feature members Rap Monster, Suga, and J-Hope followed by Jin which was clad in a doctor outfit in the most recent teaser.

Basing on the title of the album and the concept of the teasers, there exists a very high possibility that the rising group Bangtan Boys will be having a hard time saving the sanity of their fans after the release of their newest album that will undoubtedly reign in the charts as well.
