K-Pop group TWICE marked a new milestone in their career as they landed in the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200.

The music website reported that the group's new album With YOU-th earned 95,000 equivalent album units in its first week of release, with 90,000 albums accounting to the album sales. Streaming-equivalent album (SEA) units added another 4,500 units, translating to 6.33 million on-demand streams of the album's six tracks, while track-equivalent album (TEA) units contributed 500 units.

Following this huge milestone, TWICE penned a message for their fans on social media.

"Our golden days are made thanks to ONCE, with our first Billboard 200 Top 1. Thank you for making history with us, ONCE❤️,"

In a previous interview with Billboard, the group explained the concept behind the album saying that it highlights the power of being together for each other.

The group also added that the album talks about growing and maturing together as years pass by.

"Around our debut, or even a few years ago, many of our fans still went to school and now go to work. Or there may have been a few in middle school and now in high school," Sana relayed.

She continued: "We take a lot of pride in seeing them and how they grow. We’re really thankful that we have fans who have been with us throughout their time as we grew with our career."

The group released the lead single of the album titled "I Got You" last February 2.

TWICE relayed that they chose the song as they want to highlight the beauty of team work.

“It’s us speaking to each other and encouraging each other, which is really great that we can do this together because there are members who can help me when I’m having a hard time, there are members who see me when I’m in a good mood — just being together is encouraging…just like how PD [producer-director J.Y. Park] first made ‘Feel Special,’ the album concept itself is putting together our story. We wanted to showcase how the fans look at our teamwork, and that’s why we chose this song," Jihyo explained.
