BTS’ fandom known collectively as ARMY (Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth) has invented a new word that thesaurus could add to its data.
The word is “BAK”, which stands for “Billboard All Kill”.
BAK is in reference to the unprecedented achievement of BTS, topping all of the following Billboard Charts – SIMULTANEOUSLY – for the October 3, 2020 week:
• #1 Hot 100
• #1 Billboard Global Excl. U.S.
• #1 Billboard Global 200
• #1 Artist 100
• #1 Top Social 50
• #1 Digital Song Sales
• #1 World Albums
• 7th Most Weeks at #1 on Billboard Artist 100, tying with Billie Eillish and Adele
This is well-demonstrated by Borahae Funds (@BorahaeFunds) tweet:
