BTS's Jungkook keeps proving his global popularity on the U.S. Billboard charts. As of July 27, Jungkook's solo song "Seven" is at number 38 on the "Global (Excl. U.S.)" chart.

"Seven" is also at number 78 on the "Global 200" chart, staying on both major Billboard charts for 53 weeks straight.

Another solo song from Jungkook, "Standing Next to You," is at number 139 on the "Global (Excl. U.S.)" chart, holding its spot for 37 weeks in a row.

Jungkook had previously topped both the "Global 200" and "Global (Excl. U.S.)" charts with "Seven" and "Standing Next to You." "Seven" was number one for nine weeks on the "Global (Excl. U.S.)" chart and seven weeks on the "Global 200" chart.

This made him the first Asian artist to hold the top spot on both charts at the same time for seven weeks straight.

Last year, Billboard named "Seven" the number one "Global Song of the Summer for 2023." This year, it was picked as the most popular song in over 200 countries, excluding the U.S., in the "2024 International Power Players."

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.
