K-Pop maintained its grip on Billboard's World Albums chart for the week ending August 15, with multiple groups holding strong positions across the rankings.

CORTIS led the pack for a 14th week with their EP "GREENGREEN," which also re-entered the Billboard 200 top 40. The group's debut EP "COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES" climbed to No. 5 in its 48th week on the World Albums chart, showing lasting appeal.

ATEEZ's mini album "GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5" secured No. 2 in its sixth week, while LE SSERAFIM's "PUREFLOW" held at No. 6 in its 11th week. BTS's catalog remained visible, with their 2022 anthology "Proof" rising to No. 4 in its 217th week and their 2020 Japanese album "Map of the Soul: 7 ~The Journey~" at No. 13.

New entries marked the chart's diversity. Stray Kids debuted their digital compilation "SKZ-REPLAY 2026 Pt.1" at No. 10, while their past albums "KARMA" and "DO IT" ranked No. 15 and No. 25 respectively. RIIZE's mini album "II" entered at No. 16 following its recent U.S. physical release, arriving a month and a half after the June debut.

TXT's Yeonjun contributed a solo project with his mini album "NO LABELS: PART 02" at No. 7 in its fourth week. BOYNEXTDOOR's "HOME" stayed steady at No. 9, aespa's "LEMONADE" held No. 11 in its 10th week, and ILLIT's "MAMIHLAPINATAPAI" remained at No. 14.

Further down, NewJeans' "Get Up" reached No. 19 in its 152nd week, while ENHYPEN's "THE SIN : VANISH" came in at No. 21 in its 29th week. The chart reflects both the sustained commercial power of established releases and the consistent debut performance of new K-Pop material.
