A GOLDEN START FOR JUNG KOOK

BIGHIT/Geffen's Jung Kook will have the top entry on this week's HITS Top 50 with his debut solo album, Golden. The 11-song LP—including "Seven" f/Latto, which reached 1b global Spotify streams more quickly than any track before it—is heading for 140-160k.

Taylor Swift's 1989 (Taylor's Version) (Republic) is in line for a second week at #1.

In other news, we regret to inform you: It's officially sweatpants season.
