BTS's Jimin has made a new history on iTunes with his song 'Filter.' 'Filter' reached No. 1 on the iTunes Top Songs Chart in Germany on October 15th and achieved the top position in a total of 118 countries and regions worldwide.
'Filter' is Jimin's solo song included in BTS's 4th regular album. With this achievement, Jimin broke his own record for the most No. 1 rankings among BTS solo songs and all tracks, solidifying his status as the 'BTS frontman' and a record breaker. Particularly, following the worldwide chart-topping success of the OST 'With You' and the title track 'Like Crazy' from his solo album, Jimin has set a record of No. 1 rankings in over 119 countries, including 'Filter,' making it a total of 3 songs that have achieved the remarkable feat of being No. 1 in over 118 countries worldwide, establishing the first achievement of its kind by any artist in the world.
Jimin, who is making history on iTunes, is the only artist in 2023 to have all four of his songs released this year, 'Like Crazy (119 countries),' 'Set Me Free Pt.2 (113 countries),' the collaboration with Taeyang 'Vibe (103 countries),' and the main theme song for the Hollywood movie 'Fast & Furious 10,' 'Angel Pt.1 (100 countries),' all reaching No. 1 in over 100 countries on iTunes. Additionally, this record adds to the astonishment, considering that the record for 'Filter,' released in 2020, is included in this accomplishment."
