TWICE’s Jihyo has made an impressive debut on the Billboard charts!

Additionally, Jihyo debuted at No. 10 on Billboard’s Artist 100 this week, making her only the second female K-pop soloist in history to enter the top 50 (once again, following Nayeon, who debuted at No. 5 last year).

Outside of the Billboard 200, “ZONE” debuted at No. 3 on Billboard’s World Albums chart this week, in addition to sweeping the No. 4 spot on both the Top Album Sales chart and the Top Current Album Sales chart.
