BTS's Jimin is proving he’s a force to be reckoned with, even during his military service hiatus!

Jimin's second solo album 'MUSE' and its title track 'Who' have stormed the Billboard charts, debuting at number 2 on the Billboard 200 and number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of August 3, 2024.

This achievement marks Jimin's second entry on the Billboard 200 and his sixth entry on the Hot 100, with 'MUSE' hitting a record high for a K-pop solo artist.

Additionally, Jimin has topped both the Billboard Global 200 chart and the Billboard Global (excluding the US) chart. His collaboration with Taeyang on 'VIBE' (feat. Jimin of BTS) hit number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100, while his solo debut album 'FACE' saw tracks like 'Set Me Free Pt.2' at number 30 and 'Like Crazy' at number 1. Other notable chart positions include 'Angel Pt. 1 (Feat. Jimin of BTS, JVKE & Muni Long / FAST X Soundtrack)' at number 65 and 'Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco)' from 'MUSE' at number 88.

'Who', a hip-hop R&B track, delivers a mix of nostalgic longing and complex emotions with a bold beat and Jimin's captivating voice.

Jimin also made waves on NBC's 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon', with a segment filmed before his military enlistment, showcasing his undeniable star power.
