BTS’s ””Arirang”” which was the chart‑topping album the previous week, has slipped to second place. Behind it sit Raye’s ””This Music May Contain Hope”” at number three, BAP’s ””Paar Daach spääder”” in fourth position, and Die Ärzte’s ””Nach uns die Sintflut”” at number five.
In the singles chart, Zara Larsson tops with ””Lush Life”” at number one, followed by Dominic Fike’s ””Babydoll”” at number two, and BTS’s ””Swim”” holding the third spot.
