New BTS song 'Film Out' tops Japan's Oricon weekly chart
SEOUL, April 7 (Yonhap) -- A new Japanese single by global K-pop dynamite BTS has topped a weekly digital single chart in Japan, the band's agency said Wednesday.

The Japanese single, released last Friday, also topped the daily digital singles ranking for three consecutive days.
The song has also made a splash among listeners outside of Japan. It swept No. 1 on iTunes top songs charts in 99 territories, as of 11 a.m. on Tuesday.
