Jimin of the global phenomenon BTS has once again etched his name in the annals of music history, becoming the first and only artist to spend a remarkable 700 days at the pinnacle of Spotify Korea’s Daily Top Artist chart. This unprecedented achievement was officially confirmed on July 5, 2025, solidifying his status as a dominant force in the Korean music scene.
This historic milestone is a testament to Jimin’s enduring popularity and the unwavering support of his dedicated fanbase. His reign at the top of the chart highlights the consistent and high-volume streaming of his solo work.
The accomplishment is further underscored by his dominance on the platform’s weekly charts. Jimin has also held the number one position on Spotify Korea’s Weekly Top Artist chart for an impressive 103 weeks, showcasing his sustained appeal.
Jimin’s solo releases have been instrumental in this record-breaking streak. His track “Who,” from his second solo album “MUSE,” has been a massive success, holding the top spot on the Weekly Top Songs chart for 50 consecutive weeks. This follows the success of his previous hit, “Like Crazy” from the album “FACE,” which also enjoyed a 40-week run at number one.
Collectively, with tracks like “Set Me Free Pt.2,” “Angel Pt.1,” and the English version of “Like Crazy,” Jimin has amassed over 650 total number ones across Spotify Korea’s charts. This figure is more than four times the number of number ones achieved by BTS as a group, highlighting the exceptional impact of his solo endeavors.
Furthermore, “Who” has now become the most-streamed song ever on Spotify Korea, having surpassed 66 million streams. In May, it made history as the first track to exceed 60 million streams on the platform.
Even while completing his mandatory military service, Jimin’s music continues to resonate with a global audience. His songs have consistently charted not only in South Korea but also on a global scale, demonstrating his far-reaching influence as a solo artist. His first solo album, “FACE,” has garnered nearly 2.5 billion streams on Spotify, while “MUSE” has already accumulated 1.7 billion streams, making him the only K-pop soloist with two albums exceeding this milestone. This continued success firmly establishes Jimin as a powerhouse in his own right, shaping the future of K-pop.
