Jimin Reigns Supreme! 👑 BTS Star Shatters Billboard Records with “Who” & “MUSE” – 75+ Weeks and Counting! 🚀
The global stage is once again buzzing with the unparalleled achievements of BTS member Jimin, as his solo artistry continues to carve out unprecedented milestones on the prestigious Billboard charts. We at Hello Korea are thrilled to report on the latest, truly historic feats from an artist who consistently redefines global impact.
In an incredible testament to his enduring popularity, Jimin’s title track “Who” from his second solo album, ‘MUSE‘, has powerfully re-entered the Billboard ‘Global (Excl. US)’ chart at No. 152, marking an astonishing 75th week on the chart. This isn’t the first time “Who” has dominated; the track previously commanded the No. 1 spot on this very chart twice, cementing its status as a certified global hit.
This remarkable re-entry positions “Who” in an elite league, establishing it as the:
- 🥇 First and only K-pop solo song to spend an astounding 75 weeks on the Billboard ‘Global (Excl. US)’ chart.
- 🥈 Second longest-charting K-pop solo song, following closely by Jimin’s own “Like Crazy” from his first album ‘FACE‘, which boasts an impressive 68 weeks on the same chart.
What makes these achievements even more profound is that both tracks accomplished these monumental feats purely on Jimin’s solo power, without any collaborations with renowned Western artists. This underscores his unique artistic strength and undeniable global resonance.
Meanwhile, Jimin’s album ‘MUSE‘ continues its relentless march through history on the Billboard ‘World Albums’ chart. This week, it proudly sits at No. 18, extending its chart presence to an incredible 76 consecutive weeks. ‘MUSE‘ has now set several unprecedented records, further solidifying Jimin’s status as a global phenomenon:
- 🌟 The first and only K-pop solo album to hit No. 1 on the ‘World Albums’ chart an astonishing 8 times.
- 🌟 The first and only K-pop solo album to spend 76 weeks on the ‘World Albums’ chart.
- 🌟 Beyond K-pop, it stands as the first and only album by an Asian solo artist to achieve 76 weeks on this highly competitive chart.
These staggering statistics are more than just numbers; they are concrete evidence of Jimin’s extraordinary impact and unwavering global popularity, continually pushing the boundaries for K-pop and Asian artists worldwide.
This level of consistent, independent success on such global platforms isn’t just a record; it’s a powerful narrative of artistic integrity and universal appeal. Jimin isn’t just making music; he’s writing history with every note, resonating across cultures without needing external validation.
With each new achievement, Jimin further cements his legacy as a trailblazer, proving that authentic artistry knows no bounds and his global star power shines brighter than ever.
