According to the December 20 Billboard charts, Seven ranked at No. 150 on the Global 200 chart. The 2023 release climbed 15 spots from the previous week, marking its 125th week on the chart.
This makes Jungkook the first Asian artist, including both groups and solo acts, to stay on the Global 200 for this long.
On the Global (excluding U.S.) chart, Seven rose 12 spots to No. 81, reaching 126 consecutive weeks. Jungkook is the first Asian solo artist to chart for this long, proving his strong and lasting presence on major Billboard charts.
Jungkook also made a strong showing on the newly launched Billboard Korea Global K-Songs chart, placing four songs: Seven at No. 15, Standing Next To You at No. 54, 3D at No. 66, and Still With You at No. 97.
The song continues to dominate in Asia as well, holding No. 1 on the Billboard Vietnam Hot 100 chart for nine consecutive weeks.
Seven previously held No. 1 for nine weeks on Global (excluding U.S.) and seven weeks on Global 200, marking the first time an Asian artist simultaneously topped both charts for this long.
The track debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s main Hot 100 singles chart and remained on the chart for 15 weeks.
On the UK Official Top 100 singles chart, it debuted at No. 3 and stayed for 14 weeks, making it the first K-pop solo song to maintain a presence on the chart this long, further solidifying Jungkook’s global superstar status.
