Ed Sheeran sure has a lot of fans in Japan than J-pop artists have.

What about the BTS?

I searched for BTS in the charts just now and got 0 matches but they might be there under a Japanese name. From skimming through them I didn't see them though.
TWICE has a combined total of 8 entries if we add both charts. Big Bang has 4, if we include Taeyang's ENL.

Oh, thanks. At least its very good to see TWICE, Big Bang and Taeyang on the list.

I still think BTS are hated in Japan though.

It's not that strange though. It's a four-year chart and they've only really taken off recently.

I still think BTS are hated in Japan though.

They have a massive following, and I wouldn't say they're hated at all.

I’m surprised Shota Shimizu was so popular.
