Hanteo weekly charts swept by Stray Kids
Stray Kids claimed No. 1 on both the Hanteo Chart World Chart and Album Chart for the first week of August 2026, based on an aggregation period of August 3 to August 9. On the weekly World Chart, the group posted a world index of 21,304.03 points, finishing well ahead of aespa in second with 11,751.01 points and ATEEZ in third with 7,055.79 points. On the weekly Album Chart, "THIS & THAT" recorded an album index of 2,543,817.20 points with first-week sales of 1,895,617 copies, followed by Picheolin's "BOARD" and CORTIS's "GREENGREEN."
YouTube music video performance across regions
The title track's music video reached No. 1 on YouTube music video trending charts in 25 regions on its release day, including the United States, Australia, Brazil, and Canada. By the morning of August 10, the video remained atop the worldwide trending chart and had surpassed 46.12 million views. Billboard's separate coverage put the same video at more than 62 million YouTube views as of its reporting date.
Billboard's new music poll result
Stray Kids' "THIS & THAT" won Billboard's weekly new music poll with 85% of the vote, in a field that included Karol G's "No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto," a Madonna and Kylie Minogue collaboration, FLO, Role Model, and Alex Warren. The poll opened on Friday, August 7 and closed Sunday. Billboard noted that the group's previous releases, from "ODDINARY" in 2022 through "DO IT" in 2025, had all debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, though it was too early to gauge where "THIS & THAT" would land on official rankings.
Companion iTunes and Apple Music placements
Alongside the Hanteo and YouTube results, the new release reached No. 1 on the worldwide and European iTunes album charts and the European Apple Music album chart, and ranked No. 1 on the daily Hanteo Chart and Circle Chart retail album chart for August 7 and 8.
What remains uncertain
The Billboard 200 chart position for "THIS & THAT" has not yet been reported, and the precise global YouTube view count continues to rise beyond the figures cited above. The three sources differ on the YouTube view tally, with one reporting 46.12 million views as of the morning of August 10 and another reporting more than 62 million views as of its separate reporting window.
