BTS’s Jimin continues to make history as his solo single Who marked its 20th consecutive week on the Billboard Hot 100, according to the chart published Tuesday in the United States. This achievement is the longest streak for a K-pop solo artist on the chart in the past decade.
The song, which initially debuted at No. 12, climbed back up nine spots to No. 47 this week, showcasing its enduring popularity. Who is the lead single from Jimin’s second solo album, Muse, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 upon its release. The album also demonstrated remarkable longevity, rebounding 43 spots to No. 114 on this week’s chart.
Adding to its accolades, Who became the first entry by a K-pop solo artist on Spotify’s Top Tracks of 2024 USA, part of the platform’s year-end Wrapped tally. It was also recognized as the most-streamed K-pop song globally on Spotify for the year, highlighting Jimin’s international appeal and his ability to connect with a diverse audience.
Jimin’s achievements with Who reflects a significant milestone not only for his career but also for K-pop as a whole. His success as a solo artist showcases the genre’s growing influence on the global music stage and underscores his ability to maintain a strong presence both as a member of BTS and in his solo endeavors.
The album Muse has further solidified Jimin’s position as a powerhouse in the music industry, with its blend of introspective lyrics and innovative production resonating with fans worldwide. The album’s ability to climb back up the Billboard charts demonstrates its lasting impact and the dedication of Jimin’s fanbase.
Jimin’s record-breaking achievements on both Billboard and Spotify are a testament to his artistry and the universal appeal of his music. His ability to transcend language and cultural barriers has firmly established him as one of K-pop’s most influential figures on the international stage.
As Who continues to gain recognition and Muse maintains its strong presence on global charts, Jimin is poised to further elevate his career and solidify his legacy as a trailblazer in K-pop history.
