BTS's Jimin continues to make impressive achievements as a K-pop representative artist, maintaining a long-running presence on major U.S. Billboard charts even while serving in the military.
According to the latest Billboard charts (for the week of January 25), Jimin's "Who" ranked 41st on the Billboard Hot 100, marking its 25th consecutive week on the chart. This extended "Who"'s record as the longest-charting K-pop solo song on the Hot 100 since PSY's "Gangnam Style," surpassing its own previous record. It now ranks third overall in K-pop history, following BTS's "Dynamite" (32 weeks) and PSY's "Gangnam Style" (31 weeks), as well as FIFTY FIFTY's "Cupid."
On the Billboard 200, the album "MUSE," which features "Who," rose 17 spots to 118th, marking its 26th consecutive week on the chart. This achievement makes Jimin the first-ever Korean solo artist to chart on the Billboard 200 for 26 weeks, solidifying a historic milestone. Additionally, Jimin re-entered the Billboard Artist 100 chart at 69th place, bringing his total weeks on the chart to 33, tying the record for the longest-charting Korean solo artist.
Jimin's "Who" also continued to perform well on various sub-charts. It ranked 21st on both the Global 200 and Global (excluding U.S.) charts, and re-entered the Digital Song Sales chart at 23rd. Additionally, it placed 29th on the Streaming Songs chart, extending its record to 26 weeks, becoming the second-longest-charting K-pop song on that chart after PSY's "Gangnam Style."
On the World Albums chart, "MUSE" ranked 3rd, maintaining its 26-week streak. Along with Jimin's debut album FACE, which has charted for 63 weeks, "MUSE" continues to enjoy enduring popularity as one of the longest-charting solo K-pop albums.
