Jin of BTS has proven his powerful solo popularity after ranking No. 1 in the Best Solo Artist category at the Kstyle Awards.
Jin took first place at the inaugural Kstyle Awards, hosted by Japan’s leading Hallyu media Kstyle.
The ceremony recognizes artists who stood out over the year across group, rookie, and solo categories, drawing strong attention from K pop fans in Japan.
What makes the result more meaningful is that the awards were conducted together with IDOLCHAMP and were decided 100 percent by fan votes.
Jin secured 29.36 percent of the total votes, beating out strong competitors and clearly showing the strength of his global fandom.
On January 30, Kstyle shared the news on its official social media, stating, “We will present a specially made original trophy to Jin, the winner of Best Solo Artist,” which quickly drew excited reactions from fans.
Jin’s strong results continue beyond Japan. He previously won the Male Popularity Award at the 40th Golden Disc Awards and was selected as a 2025 K Pop Artist for the second year in a row by Mexico’s online pop music station House Radio.
His song Don't Say You Love Me also received recognition in the K Pop Song category.
In addition, the track earned International Hit of the Year at the BreakTudo Awards 2025, was named Best K Pop Male Solo Song of 2025 by Billboard Brazil, and won both Record of the Year and Top 20 Songs of the Year at the Asian Pop Music Awards 2025.
With repeated No. 1 rankings and award wins across Japan and other global markets, Jin continues to solidify his position as a top global solo artist, keeping attention high for his future activities.
