K-pop boy group Stray Kids has topped the Billboard 200 albums chart for the sixth time with its new album “Hop.”

Billboard said in a chart preview on Sunday that Stray Kids debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with the new album with 187-thousand equivalent album units earned in the United States.

Stray Kids has become the first group ever to debut at No. 1 with their first six albums since 1956, when the chart was launched. 

They previously debuted atop the chart with "ODDINARY" and "MAXIDENT" in 2022,  as well as "ROCK-STAR" and "5-STAR" in 2023, and "ATE" in July this year. 

With the achievement, Stray Kids ties with BTS, as well as Linkin Park and Dave Matthews Band, for the most No. 1s among groups on the Billboard 200 since 2000.
