BTS's Jimin achieved a significant milestone in 2023 as the first Korean artist to have three music videos surpass 100 million views on YouTube in a single year. 
This remarkable feat was accomplished with his solo album "FACE," featuring the title track "Like Crazy." On October 5th, the music video for "Like Crazy" reached the 100 million views mark. Earlier in the year, the album's pre-release song "Set Me Free Pt.2" had already crossed this milestone on July 31st, and the collaboration track with Taeyang, "VIBE," achieved the same feat on April 22nd.
This makes Jimin the first Korean artist in 2023 to set such a record by reaching over 100 million views on three music videos. He now holds the title of the Korean artist with the most 100 million view videos for music released in 2023.
The American Hallyu media outlet Allkpop reported on Jimin's achievements, stating, "Jimin continues to prove his status as a highly respected artist in the Korean music industry since his official solo debut, presenting a captivating and elegant dance performance along with his unique and diverse vocal colors." They also highlighted the perfect cinematography, alluring choreography, and the flawless expression of beautiful lyrics that captured not only fans worldwide but also those who may not have been fans.
The report also expressed some regret, mentioning that the achievement could have come even sooner for "Like Crazy" had there not been issues with deleted music video views. Jimin, who released his solo album "FACE" in March, personally participated in various aspects of its production, contributing to the global success. Fans can look forward to his exclusive release of "Jimin's Production Diary" through Weverse on the 23rd, showing his growth as a true artist.
