[ARTICLE] Billboard: NCT 127 Earn First Billboard 200 Entry With 'Regular-Irregular' Album

The achievement makes them the second-highest charting K-pop boy band in Billboard 200 history.
NCT 127 is sure to make their city – and fans around the world – proud as the Seoul-based boy band scores major chart accomplishments with their first full-length album.
The 10-member K-pop group sees their Regular-Irregular album debut at No. 86 on the Billboard 200, marking NCT 127’s first appearance on America’s definitive albums chart. The set enters with 8,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Oct. 18, according to Nielsen Music. 
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units are comprised of traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). The new Oct. 27-dated chart – where Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born soundtrack holds at No. 1 for a second week – will be posted in full on Billboard’s websites on Tuesday, Oct. 23.
The NCT guys score their new chart feat after a remarkable amount of stateside activity leading up to the release including the debut performance of the album’s lead single “Regular” on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, never-before-seen collaborations with Apple Music as the service’s first K-pop artist inducted to their Up Next campaign, red-carpet appearances on the American Music Awards and more.
Overall, NCT 127 now becomes the second-highest charting K-pop boy band on the Billboard 200. While BTS still reign as the first with two No. 1 albums in 2018 alone, the boys have risen ahead of male acts like EXO (who have sent two entries to the tally and peaked at No. 87 with The War in 2017) and BIGBANG (who have two entries as well and peaked at No. 150 with Made in 2012). Regular-Irregular is also the tenth-highest K-pop entry in Billboard 200 history.
