K-pop boy band BTS placed at No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with "Swim" in its fourth week on the chart after debuting at No. 1.

The song, the lead track from the group's fifth studio album, "Arirang," moved down five places from No. 5 the previous week, Billboard said in a chart preview Monday.

"Swim" had spent four weeks at No. 1 on both of Billboard's global charts — the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excluding U.S. rankings — as well as the Digital Song Sales chart.

Elsewhere on the Hot 100, Ella Langley's "Choosin' Texas" held the No. 1 spot for a second straight week, marking its seventh time atop the chart overall. Olivia Dean's "Man I Need" (2025) ranked No. 2, followed by Bruno Mars' "I Just Might."

"Golden" (2025) from the soundtrack of Netflix's hit animated film "KPop Demon Hunters" (2025) remained at No. 7 for another week.
