BTS Jimin's 'Who' Hits 60-Week Milestone on Spotify US Chart as 'Be Mine' Makes Surprise Return
Over a year since its release, BTS member Jimin continues to dominate American streaming platforms with unprecedented longevity. His hit single "Who" has now spent 60 consecutive weeks on Spotify's US Weekly Top Songs chart, setting a new benchmark for K-pop solo artists.
Title Track Maintains Historic Chart Run
"Who," the lead single from Jimin's second solo album "MUSE," claimed the #42 position on the chart for the week of September 19-25. Released in July 2024, the track has become the longest-charting song by any K-pop solo artist on the platform's US weekly rankings.
The song debuted at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remained on the chart for 33 weeks-surpassing even BTS's group record of 32 weeks with "Dynamite." It also earned "K-Pop Song of the Year" honors at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
B-Side Track Charts After 14 Months
In an unusual development, album track "Be Mine" re-entered Spotify's US chart at #160 after 14 months, accumulating over 324,000 streams. The late chart appearance demonstrates the album's sustained appeal among American listeners, even for non-promoted tracks.
Record-Breaking Streaming Performance
"Who" has surpassed 400 million filtered streams on Spotify US as of August 2025, making it the most-streamed Korean song on the platform. Globally, the track crossed 2 billion streams in September 2025, becoming the fastest solo song by a Korean artist to reach this milestone.
Jimin remains the only Korean solo artist with two songs-"Like Crazy" and "Who"-each surpassing 100 million streams on Spotify US without features or collaborations.
Album Sets New Longevity Records
"MUSE" has spent 52 weeks on Spotify's US Weekly Top Albums chart, making it the first and only K-pop solo album to chart for an entire year. The album also achieved similar success globally, spending 52 consecutive weeks on Spotify's Global Weekly Top Albums chart.
Released on July 19, 2024 while Jimin was serving mandatory military service in South Korea, "MUSE" features seven tracks including "Rebirth (Intro)," "Interlude: Showtime," "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band" featuring Loco, "Slow Dance," "Be Mine," "Who," and "Closer Than This."
Regional Impact Highlights
Beyond national charts, Jimin's music has shown exceptional regional strength. In Atlanta, both "Who" and his previous single "Like Crazy" ranked #1 and #5 respectively on the city's 2024 Spotify Wrapped most-streamed songs list-a rare achievement for any non-English language artist.
The sustained chart performance of both title and album tracks over 14 months represents an extraordinary accomplishment in today's streaming landscape, where most songs experience rapid chart decline. Industry observers attribute this longevity to Jimin's authentic artistry and genuine connection with American audiences.
Jimin is expected to complete his military service in June 2025, with BTS planning a full group reunion and comeback in spring 2026.
