The K-pop stars' album “Right Place, Wrong Person” was released on Friday and features 11 new songs for fans to enjoy in between BTS' mandatory military service.

Led by the single “Come Back to Me,” “Right Place, Wrong Person” also includes alternative-based tracks “Nuts,” “Groin,” “Heaven” and “LOST!.” According to a Big Hit news release, the album as a whole is “an unvarnished and honest expression of RM's unique sensibility, aesthetics and beliefs,” and follows the Korean artist's 2022 debut album “Indigo,” which reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

RM and his BTS bandmates Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook are currently serving in the South Korean military, which requires all able-bodied males to serve 18 months by the age of 28. Several of the members have been working on various solo projects during their military service, with the full band planning to reunite for a band performance in 2025.

Coming in behind Right Place, Wrong Person on this week's poll was Twenty One Pilots' seventh album, Clancy, which received about 10% of the vote. The album follows 2021's Scaled and Icy, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, and concludes the duo's lengthy album saga that began with 2015's Blurryface and 2018's Trench.
