BTS have officially been named the biggest recording act in the world of 2020, according to an industry body.

The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry revealed on Thursday its annual ranking of the 10 biggest recording artists in the world, with the K-pop band coming out on top, ahead of Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift.

File footage from May 2019 shows fans of South Korean boy band screaming in delight as members were unveiled on a big screen at London’s famous Piccadilly Circus.

Hundreds gathered at the London landmark to see the unveiling of a new advertising campaign by South Korean carmaker Hyundai, which features BTS.

The advertisement coincided with the K-pop act performing at Wembley Stadium in London that weekend, the first South Korean group to play the 90,000 capacity stadium. Tickets for the show sold out in minutes.
