BTS - JIN
The popularity of the group BTS is still going strong.
JIMIN’s title track “Who” from his second solo album “MUSE” re-entered the “Top 10” in two weeks, ranking seventh on the UK’s Official Singles Chart, released on January 24 (local time). Although the song was released in July last year, it still charted on the “Audio Streaming (No. 9),” “Single Streaming (No. 11),” “Single Download (No. 28),” and “Single Sales (No. 30)” charts.
JUNGKOOK’s solo songs, who made a surprise comeback last week, also continued to make their mark on the charts. “Standing next to you,” the title track from his solo album “GOLDEN,” ranked 56th on “Physical Single,” up 38 notches from the previous week, while his vocals from the official soundtrack of the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar™ “Dreamers” ranked 73rd on “Video Streaming.”
BTS’s success continued on Spotify, the world’s largest music streaming platform. JIMIN’s “Who” (12th) and JIN’s solo album “HAPPY” (75th) climbed three notches from the previous week on “Weekly Top Song Global” (counting period: January 17-23). JUNGKOOK’s debut solo single “SEVEN (feat. Latto)” also climbed to No. 84. V and Park Hyo Shin’s duet song “Winter Ahead (with PARK HYO SHIN),” released last November, enjoyed steady popularity at No. 74.
JIMIN’s “MUSE” (17th), JUNGKOOK’s “GOLDEN” (46th), and JIN‘s “HAPPY – :)” (103rd) maintained their positions on the “World’s Top Albums of the Week” list. BTS’s album “PROOF” ranked 36th, and the repackage album “LOVE YOURSELF 結 “Answer”” released in 2018 ranked 168th.
The members’ solo works are also attracting attention at international award ceremonies. On January 23, the music video for “Lost!”, the title track of RM’s second solo album “RIGHT PLACE, WRONG PERSON,” was nominated for the Film and Television Awards competition for “South by Southwest 2025.” It is the only K-pop production among the nominees for this year’s award.
“Lost!” is a fun video about RM’s journey to escape the labyrinth of thoughts. It has attracted attention for its story and visuals that stimulate the imagination, including unique objects and visual pleasure caused by irregular changes in space.
