BTS JiMin has once again solidified his status as a global pop icon, setting a major new K-pop streaming record on the Spotify US chart. The BTS member is now the first and only K-pop artist to exceed 600 million cumulative filtered streams on the platform in the United States, underscoring his immense popularity and the success of his solo endeavors.
Unprecedented Success on the Spotify US Chart
JiMin’s achievements in the competitive US music market are nothing short of historic. He has become the first and only K-pop artist to reach the monumental milestone of 600 million cumulative streams on the Spotify US chart. This feat highlights the dedicated support of his fanbase and the widespread appeal of his music. His solo album, “MUSE”, has also set records as the first and only K-pop album to surpass 450 million streams on Spotify US. Furthermore, the album has demonstrated remarkable staying power, spending an impressive 59 weeks on the ‘Weekly Top Albums’ chart.
‘Who’ Dominates Streaming Records
Leading this charge is his hit song ‘Who’. As of September 7, 2025, the track became the first and only K-pop song to achieve over 400 million streams on the Spotify US chart. ‘Who’ also made history as the first solo song by a K-pop artist without a featured artist to debut at number one on the Spotify US ‘Daily Top Songs’ chart. Its longevity is equally impressive; as of October 25, 2025, the song had charted for 450 consecutive days on the same daily chart, a first for any K-pop solo song. This consistent performance signals a new era for the BTS JiMin solo career.
Continued Longevity on the Billboard Global 200
Beyond Spotify, JiMin’s influence extends to the prestigious Billboard charts. On the upcoming chart dated November 8, 2025, ‘Who’ is set to extend its record as the longest-charting K-pop solo song on the Billboard Global 200. The track will appear for its 67th week, landing at the #160 position. This continued presence on a major global chart further cements his position as a powerhouse solo artist.
A Testament to BTS JiMin’s Solo Power
These record-breaking statistics are a clear indicator of JiMin’s incredible impact as a soloist. His ability to consistently break barriers on both the Spotify US chart and the Billboard Global 200 distinguishes him in the global music landscape. These achievements showcase the immense global appeal of BTS JiMin as a solo artist, proving that his music resonates deeply with audiences far beyond the dedicated BTS fandom. His ongoing success sets a high bar and creates new possibilities for K-pop artists in the international arena.
