BTS’s Jungkook Hits 10 Billion Streams, Quietly Taking Over the World

BTS’s Jungkook has shaken up the landscape of global music platforms. By surpassing 10 billion cumulative streams on Spotify, he has flung open the door to record-breaking figures.

Jungkook’s personal Spotify account recently exceeded 10 billion cumulative streams (pre-filtered). His name has been etched in the very place that proves an artist’s influence on the world’s largest music streaming platform.

According to figures released by the “World Music Awards,” a European music awards ceremony, Jungkook achieved 10 billion Spotify streams in the fastest time (1,382 days) among Asian singers.

Adding to this the record of being the first K-pop soloist to reach 10 billion streams, he has set an unprecedented milestone in the global music industry. Even considering all male artists globally, there is only one person who has reached this record faster than Jungkook.

The upward trend of BTS Jungkook’s streaming numbers is ongoing. His Spotify account is consistently accumulating an average of approximately 6.5 million streams per day. This signifies that his entire musical spectrum is being “consistently listened to,” rather than relying on a specific hit song.

In particular, the fact that he reached 10 billion streams with just a single solo album and 18 original tracks reaffirms Jungkook’s unique global influence.

Jungkook has four songs on Spotify with over 1 billion streams (Seven, Left and Right, Standing Next to You, 3D), which is both a first and the highest number for an Asian solo artist.
Among these, the solo single Seven, which has recorded the highest streaming numbers, currently exceeds 2.66 billion streams. It continues to maintain its streak as the first and fastest record by an Asian singer.

There is another significant major record. BTS’s Jungkook is the first Asian solo artist to have all 18 of his original tracks surpass 100 million streams.
Sustained long-term records also stand out. Seven has charted on Spotify’s “Weekly Top Songs Global” for a total of 123 weeks.

The album GOLDEN has also been listed on the “Weekly Top Albums Global” for a total of 107 weeks, maintaining the record for the first and longest charting by an Asian solo album.

BTS’s Jungkook recently surpassed 19 billion on-demand audio streams. This is a first for a K-pop soloist and the fastest achievement for any Asian artist. Considering current trends, surpassing 20 billion streams is not far off.

Jungkook’s Spotify metrics demonstrate the flow of consumption in the global music market. It represents an “expansive streaming power” where songs are not just “listened to once and forgotten,” but remain consistently alive and active across the platform. The numbers speak first as to why Jungkook is an artist the world is watching.
