ATEEZ is proving they’re not just rising stars—they’re already global legends.
The powerful K-pop boy group has been ruling the U.S. Billboard charts for nearly two straight months thanks to their 12th mini album Golden Hour: Part.3 and its special version In Your Fantasy Edition.
The original Golden Hour: Part.3, released last month, shocked fans when it debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart (June 28), selling over 100,000 copies in its first week. It was the highest-selling album by any K-pop artist on the Billboard 200 in 2024 so far.
That wasn’t all — the album also hit No. 1 on World Albums, Top Album Sales, and Top Current Album Sales, and ATEEZ even landed No. 2 on the Billboard Artist 100, gaining massive attention worldwide. The title track “Lemon Drop” entered the Hot 100 at No. 69, marking ATEEZ’s first-ever entry on the chart, and only the third time ever for a K-pop boy group to make it.
This milestone made ATEEZ one of the few K-pop acts to appear on both the Billboard 200 and the Hot 100 at the same time — a true sign of their impact in the U.S. mainstream.
But they didn’t stop there.
Just one month later, their special version album Golden Hour: Part.3 ‘In Your Fantasy Edition’ dropped on July 11, and it climbed even higher — entering the Hot 100 at No. 68 (July 26), their highest position ever. The new title track “In Your Fantasy” also ranked No. 1 on World Digital Song Sales and No. 7 on Digital Song Sales.
Even more impressive? The members’ solo tracks made waves, too.
- Wooyoung’s “Sagittarius”,
- Seonghwa’s “Skin”,
- Yunho’s “Slide to Me”,
- Yeosang’s “Legacy”, and
- Mingi’s “Roar” all ranked between No. 6 and No. 10 on the World Digital Song Sales chart.
Meanwhile, the original Golden Hour: Part.3 album re-entered the Billboard 200 at No. 7 on July 26 — proving that ATEEZ’s power isn’t fading anytime soon. It also reclaimed No. 1 on World Albums and ranked No. 2 on Top Album Sales and Top Current Album Sales, marking five weeks on the Billboard charts.
Even their past album Golden Hour: Part.2, released last year, returned to the World Albums chart at No. 24.
With both the regular and special versions charting high, ATEEZ has truly taken over Billboard for nearly two months straight. Their global power is stronger than ever, and fans all over the world are cheering them on.
ATEEZ recently wrapped up their In Your Fantasy 2025 world tour stops in Atlanta, New York, Baltimore, Nashville, and Orlando. They’ll continue to meet fans in 12 more North American cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, and Mexico City, before heading to Japan for concerts in Saitama, Nagoya, and Kobe.
It’s safe to say — ATEEZ isn’t just trending. They’re making history.
