BTS member Jungkook continues to showcase his global impact by achieving a remarkable feat: 15 songs with over 100 million streams on Spotify.

According to 'Chart Data', Jungkook's fan-favorite self-composed song 'My You', released in 2022, recently crossed the 100 million streams mark on Spotify, the world's largest music streaming platform.

This milestone solidifies Jungkook's position with hits like 'Seven', '3D', and tracks from his 'GOLDEN' album such as 'Standing next to You', 'Yes or No', 'Please Don't Change', and 'Hate You'. Collaborative tracks like 'Left and Right', 'Too much', the webtoon OST 'Stay Alive', and the official soundtrack for the 2022 FIFA Qatar World Cup 'Dreamers' also contributed to this achievement.

Jungkook is now recognized as the first K-pop soloist to achieve 15 songs with over 100 million streams on Spotify. Previously, he set records as the top Asian soloist on Spotify with three songs ('Seven', 'Standing Next to You', 'Left and Right') collectively surpassing 700 million streams. Additionally, Jungkook has five songs exceeding 500 million streams on Spotify ('Seven', '3D', 'Standing Next to You', 'Left and Right', 'Euphoria').

His song 'Seven' alone has soared past 1.7 billion streams, setting a record as the fastest Asian song and the first by a K-pop soloist to achieve this milestone.

With over 6.4 billion streams on his personal Spotify profile (pre-filtering), Jungkook stands out as the fastest K-pop soloist to achieve this milestone when all credits are considered.

Jungkook's solo album 'GOLDEN' also made Spotify history, becoming the first and only album by an Asian soloist to surpass 3.8 billion streams, setting another record as the fastest Asian soloist studio album to achieve this milestone.

On June 22, 2024, Jungkook reaffirmed his global influence and popularity by becoming the first K-pop soloist to exceed 2 billion streams on Spotify.

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
