&TEAM enters Billboard 200 Top 20, a first for a Japanese boy group

&TEAM's latest mini album, 'Mark on Me,' has entered the Billboard 200 at No. 20. This is the highest position ever achieved on the chart by a Japanese boy group.

The album also topped Billboard's World Albums chart and reached No. 3 on the Top Album Sales chart. &TEAM first entered the Billboard 200 in May with 'We on Fire' at No. 52.

'Mark on Me' sold over 1.35 million copies in its first week on South Korea's Hanteo chart, marking the group's fourth consecutive million-seller. In the UK, it reached No. 4 on the Official Physical Singles Chart.

The album's title track charted in Singapore, Malaysia, and South Korea. Another track, 'Good Boy,' reached the top 10 in South Africa, Singapore, Malaysia, and the UK.

In Japan, the album topped the Oricon weekly combined album ranking with 514,000 points. It also led Billboard Japan's Top Albums Sales and Hot Albums charts.

The group held its first U.S. activities in August, including a sold-out event at the GRAMMY Museum and a performance at KCON LA 2026. Billboard noted the performance "proved why &TEAM is called a 'performance monster.'"

The album features songwriting contributions from Benson Boone and Griff Clawson. Choreography for the track 'Love Jang' was provided by Ayumu Imazu, while member K contributed to the choreography for 'Good Boy.'

&TEAM recently completed its 'BLAZE THE WAY' Asia tour, which included sold-out dome shows in Saitama and Seoul. The group is set to begin a 41-date Japanese tour, 'Mark on You,' on October 15.
