• BTS’s Jimin breaks his own record on Spotify Korea with ‘Who’ staying at #1 for 269 days straight — Fans say: “he keeps beating himself!”

    BTS's Jimin is making history again—and this time, he's beating his own record!

    On April 13, it was confirmed that Jimin’s solo track “Who” from his 2024 album MUSE has now stayed at #1 on Spotify Korea’s Daily Top Songs chart for 269 days straight, making it the longest-running #1 song ever in the platform’s history. What’s even more amazing? He just broke the record he already held with his past hit “Like Crazy”, which topped the same chart for 268 days!

    Even without any promotions or music show stages, “Who” has stayed strong since its release. It debuted at #1 on Spotify Korea on day one—and it hasn’t moved from the top since.

    Fans were already blown away by Jimin’s success with FACE, his 2023 solo album. But MUSE showed another level of his artistry. People are calling this a “record made with heart,” as Jimin's songs continue to connect with listeners emotionally every day.

    And it doesn’t stop there. Besides “Who” and “Like Crazy”, Jimin has taken the top spot with three more songs on the Spotify Korea chart:

    • “Angel Pt.1” from Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift
    • “Set Me Free Pt.2”
    • “Like Crazy (English Ver.)”

    With all of these, Jimin has now hit #1 a total of 573 times on the Daily Top Songs chart, the most ever by any artist on Spotify Korea.

    He’s also dominating on the artist side! As of April 13, Jimin has:

    • 623 days at #1 on the Daily Top Artist chart
    • 91 weeks at #1 on the Weekly Top Artist chart

    Fans are emotional, saying it’s more than just numbers. “Every day it’s the same song at the top, but it hits different every time,” one fan shared. Others praised Jimin for writing music that touches hearts and stays on repeat—not just on playlists, but in people’s lives.

    As a soloist and as a member of BTS, Jimin continues to make history. And what started as a question in his song “Who” is now being called “the answer fans want to hear every single day.”
