Jimin, a member of global sensation BTS, continues to make waves with his solo career, as his single "Who" climbed back up the Billboard Hot 100 chart to No. 25, according to the latest chart data dated October 19. The song has now maintained a spot on the prestigious chart for 12 consecutive weeks, further solidifying Jimin’s status as a solo artist in the international music scene.
"Who" is the lead track from Jimin’s second solo album, Muse, which debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 12. The album itself is also continuing its strong presence on the Billboard 200 chart, where it currently ranks No. 106 after initially landing at No. 2 upon its release. This marks the 12th consecutive week for Muse on the Billboard 200, demonstrating the album's enduring popularity.
In addition to his Billboard success, Jimin is also making waves internationally. "Who" is holding its own on the UK’s Official Singles Chart, where it is currently ranked No. 31, and on Spotify’s Weekly Top Songs Global, where it has climbed to an impressive No. 3. This broad international appeal showcases Jimin’s ability to connect with audiences across multiple platforms and regions.
Jimin’s achievements extend beyond chart rankings. Last month, "Who" earned platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), having reached 1 million units sold in the U.S. in record time. This makes Jimin the fastest K-pop artist to achieve platinum status, further highlighting his immense popularity in the Western market.
The consistent success of "Who" and Muse is a testament to Jimin’s growth as a solo artist. While BTS has dominated the global music scene as a group, Jimin's individual accomplishments showcase his unique artistry and versatility, appealing to both fans of the group and new listeners alike.
As Jimin continues to climb the charts and break records, fans around the world eagerly anticipate what his next moves will be. Whether it's more music or other artistic ventures, Jimin's influence on the global music landscape is undeniable and only seems to be growing.
