BTS member Jimin continues to enjoy unparalleled popularity on Spotify’s Korea charts. On November 15, Spotify, the world’s largest music platform, announced that Jimin had once again claimed the top spot on its “Weekly Top Artist” chart for Korea, marking his 70th time reaching No. 1. Jimin is the first and only artist to hold the No. 1 spot 70 times on this chart. Additionally, he has topped Spotify Korea’s “Daily Top Artist” chart for the 478th time, continually breaking his own record for the most No. 1 appearances.
The title track "Who" from his second solo album, MUSE, debuted at No. 1 on Spotify Korea's “Daily Top Song” chart on its release day, July 19, and has held this position for an impressive 120 consecutive days through November 15, even without any official promotions. Jimin’s first album title track, Like Crazy, holds the record for the most days at No. 1 with 268 days, and Who, with its 120-day streak, now takes the No. 2 spot, making Jimin the holder of the top two longest-standing records on this chart.
Jimin has achieved a total of 424 days at No. 1 on Spotify Korea's “Daily Top Song” chart, continuing to extend his record as the artist with the most No. 1s on the chart.
With “Who,” Jimin has set Spotify Korea’s record for the most daily streams (360,000) and weekly streams (2.39 million). The chart’s streaming count excludes looping, ensuring that each count reflects unique listens.
The song with the highest total streams on Spotify Korea is Jimin’s “Like Crazy,” which has surpassed 42 million streams, making it the only song on the chart to exceed 40 million. “Who” follows with 31 million streams, making Jimin the first and only artist to have two songs exceed 30 million streams on the chart.
As Jimin continues to set records on Spotify Korea, he also shines on the global stage, with Like Crazy surpassing 1.3 billion streams globally and Who recently crossing the 1 billion mark, solidifying his presence as a leading K-pop artist.
