BTS’ Jimin Makes More Billboard History — 'Who' Marks 88 Weeks on the Charts
Jimin's solo momentum on the Billboard charts shows no sign of slowing. Billboard reports that \"Who,\" the title track from his second solo album MUSE, landed at No. 171 on the Billboard Global Excl. US chart, marking an impressive 88-week chart run.
It’s the first — and only — K-pop solo single to log 88 weeks on that chart, underscoring the strength of Jimin’s global reach. What may have started as a trend has grown into a distinct musical brand, a reality reflected in Billboard’s data.

The striking part is that he did it without high-profile Western features — entirely on his own merits. \"Like Crazy,\" the lead single from his first solo LP FACE, spent 68 weeks on the same chart, giving it the second-longest run among K-pop solo singles.
In effect, Jimin is repeatedly breaking his own records and carving a singular path at the top of the charts. Beyond the dynamic performances he displayed with BTS, his distinctive vocal color and refined musical sensibility as a soloist have clearly connected with listeners around the world.

Notably, MUSE has reached No. 1 on that chart eight times, the most for any K-pop solo album. Its year-plus presence on the chart demonstrates that Jimin’s music has lasting global resonance, not just a short-lived post-release spike.
