On July 12, 2025, his solo single <em>Who<\/em> hit an incredible milestone\u2014spending 50 consecutive weeks on both Billboard\u2019s Global 200 and Global Excl. US charts. It\u2019s a rare achievement only a few artists around the world have managed, and Jimin is the first Asian act to ever do it with two different songs.<\/p>\n<p><em>Who<\/em>, the lead track from Jimin\u2019s second solo album <em>Muse<\/em>, is still going strong. Even after nearly a year since its release, it ranks at No. 108 on the Global 200 and No. 66 on the Global Excl. US chart. Fans continue to connect with the song\u2019s raw emotion, polished production, and Jimin\u2019s distinct vocal style\u2014elements that have helped it hold steady on global charts week after week.<\/p>\n<p>This success builds on the path Jimin paved with <em>Like Crazy<\/em>, his first solo hit from the album <em>Face<\/em>. That song has already made history by staying on the Global 200 for 61 weeks and the Global Excl. US for 68 weeks\u2014longer than any other K-pop solo song. It also became the first by a Korean soloist to top Billboard\u2019s Hot 100. Now, with <em>Who<\/em> joining the ranks, Jimin stands alone as the only Asian artist to have two separate songs chart for 50 weeks or more on both major Billboard global charts.<\/p>\n<p><em>Who<\/em> didn\u2019t just shine internationally\u2014it also made waves in the U.S., spending 33 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaking at No. 12. That run was the longest for any K-pop soloist at the time and added yet another milestone to Jimin\u2019s growing list of records.<\/p>\n<p>These accomplishments reflect more than just chart success\u2014they show the strength of Jimin\u2019s artistry and the dedication of his fanbase. His supporters continue to stream, share, and promote his work all over the world, keeping his music at the top even months after its release.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, as BTS prepares for a highly anticipated group comeback and a world tour in 2026, Jimin\u2019s solo era continues to stand tall. With two blockbuster singles behind him and millions still tuning in, Jimin\u2019s legacy as a global music powerhouse is only growing.
