That's only in the US. In the UK if we buy the tracks individually sales will only count for the Singles Chart. Buying the title track and then completing the album ensures sales count for both charts.

🚨Hey UKMYS🚨
ARIRANG is currently 4th on top iTunes preorders and we really really really don’t want to be preordering on iTunes!
[on release day we buy Swim then tap “complete album” bc we get a single AND album sale that way]
Please cancel (guide 👇)

I know this is from a localized fanbase but this is one piece of comeback strategy that's true in every country
DO NOT PRE-ORDER ON ITUNES, buy it release day
(why? multiple comebacks they have not added those sales correctly to release week # s)
Screenshot from the BTS UK store of the Swim CD and instrumetal. The CD single has a red cover with the red Arirang circles. The instrumental CD is clear cover with Arirang red circles.
UKMYS we can now buy
#BTS_SWIM from 3 UK stores:
- BTS UK Store: shop.bts-official.uk
- Polydor UK Store: polydor.co.uk/search?sort_...
- RecordStore UK: recordstore.co.uk/search?sort_...
You can buy 2 of each CD per store.
Each sale is another step towards that UK #1 🏆
Let's do this Army 💪
The UK BTS store is ONLY for UK and Ireland customers. Any purchases made not from these countries will not count for the official charts and will mess up our sales and sabotage our attempts to get BTS their 1st UK no 1.
Not in the UK/Ireland -🚫 buy
Do not 🚫 pre order on iTunes, wait till release day.
UK Army only 🇬🇧
iTunes -
1️⃣ Buy the title track
2️⃣ Complete the purchase and download the song
3️⃣ Go back and "complete the album" if you want to/are able to
🚫 DO NOT BUY EACH TRACK SEPARATELY - this will ruin our chances of charting the Song or the album 🚨
#ARIRANG_BTS
Army pre order physicals.
The link below has all the UK stores where Arirang CDs and Vinyls are available.
Please buy from a UK chart approved store so the purchase counts for the UK charts.
Physicals bought on Weverse won't count for our charts.
