BTS's Jin has proven once again that he's a global superstar by taking the top spot in Mubeat's January Artist of the Month fan voting, making it his third win overall!

According to the Mubeat Fanbase Research Institute, every month, the platform releases the "Mubeat Artist Report," which analyzes K-pop artists' activities in four categories: music releases, albums, videos, and fan voting. The scores are based on data from Circle Chart (for music and albums), YouTube (for videos), and Mubeat (for fan voting and videos).

In January, Jin’s fans rallied together to give him 219,020 votes, securing 1st place in the "Fan Voting" category. He topped the Mubeat K-pop Fan Voting for two consecutive weeks, proving his massive fan support.

The fan voting data is collected weekly, and for January, Jin earned the most votes with his tracks "Running Wild" and "I’ll Be There."

He achieved 1st place in the 2nd week of January with 65,210 votes for "Running Wild," and followed it up with another win in the 3rd week with 103,957 votes for "I’ll Be There."

This gave him two weeks at #1, and with these wins, Jin claimed his third 1st place title overall in the Mubeat Artist Report, having previously topped the rankings in October and November 2024.

Breaking down his fan voting data by country, Jin's top support came from South Korea (19.7%), followed closely by Japan (19.2%) and Russia (12.3%). His impressive performance also landed him in the top 4 overall in the Mubeat Artist Report.

With four weeks at #1 in the Mubeat K-pop Fan Voting, Jin has earned a place in the Mubeat Hall of Fame, being the only artist to have their name appear twice in a row in both the 4th and 5th Mubeat K-pop Fan Voting Hall of Fame, cementing his status as a true global icon.

Jin's reign doesn’t stop there—his OST "Close to You" from the tvN drama Ask the Stars topped the charts in the 1st and 2nd week of February 2025, continuing his success as a solo artist.

His beautiful, clear vocals made the track an instant hit, earning an overwhelming response from fans worldwide.

Jin’s fans continue to show their love and support, and it's clear he's one of the biggest stars in K-pop today.
