With ‘Golden,’ the November 3-released debut solo album of BTS star Jung Kook, dominating digital and streaming outlets, industry analysts are already predicting the project will make a handsome opening in the top 5 of next week’s Billboard 200.

To help it reach even higher heights on the coveted count, the 26-year-old is pounding the pavement in its support – most recently spotted at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.’

On hand to act as Monday night’s lead interview (November 6), Jung Kook also rocked the late nite talk series with a live performance of his latest single ‘Standing Next to You.’

The energetic showing at ‘Fallon’ comes just days after reports surfaced ‘Golden’ is set to move 140k-160k by the end of its inaugural sales tracking period.

If the prediction rings true, the 13-track effort – which features guest appearances from Latto, Major Lazer, DJ Snake, Jack Harlow, and more – will likely open between #3-#5 on the updated Billboard 200 next week.
