BTS member Suga has made history on Spotify, surpassing 4 billion total streams. He's now the highest-streamed Asian rapper ever.

On July 14th, Spotify confirmed that Suga achieved this milestone. It includes his solo work as Agust D and SUGA, along with tracks from BTS albums where he's featured.

Earlier, by August 2023, Suga had already hit 3 billion streams, making his total now over 10 billion in less than a year.

Notably, Suga's solo credits alone contributed 3.5 billion streams, excluding BTS tracks. This solidifies his status as the first Asian rapper to achieve such numbers with just three solo albums and tracks he's produced.

His independent production "Haegeum" recently crossed 300 million streams this month. Additionally, tracks like "Haegeum" and "That That," featuring Suga from 2022, ranked high on the Circle Chart's mid-year rankings, showcasing his ongoing success and global appeal.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
