BTS’s Jungkook is showing once again why he’s called the “record-breaking king” of K-pop.

On April 24, Spotify revealed that Jungkook’s hit solo debut track “Seven” ranked 81st on the Weekly Top Songs Global chart (April 18–24).

This marks an incredible 93 weeks in a row on the chart, setting a new all-time record for any Asian solo artist. It’s another huge milestone for Jungkook—even while he’s currently serving in the military!

And “Seven” isn't done yet. The song has reached 2.3 billion streams, making Jungkook the fastest artist in Spotify history to hit 100 million, 900 million, 1 billion, and even 1.1 billion streams with a single track. He’s now both the first and the fastest Asian soloist to do this. Fans are loving the song just as much now as when it was first released!

His solo album ‘GOLDEN’ is also still riding high. It placed 59th on Spotify’s Weekly Top Albums Global chart during the same week, continuing a 77-week streak. That makes ‘GOLDEN’ the longest-charting album by an Asian solo artist in Spotify history. With over 5.5 billion total streams, the album is proving to be a nonstop hit.

Jungkook’s global power doesn’t stop at songs and albums. On Spotify’s Weekly Top Artists Global chart, he ranked 180th, marking his 100th week in a row on the list as a soloist. He’s staying strong on the charts even while away from the spotlight.

His reach goes far beyond Spotify, too. On Billboard, “Seven” has stayed on the Global 200 chart for 91 weeks, and on the Global Excl. U.S. chart for 92 weeks. His album ‘GOLDEN’ has been on Apple Music’s Worldwide Albums chart for over 500 days, and on the European Albums chart for over 400 days.

Adding it all up, Jungkook’s Spotify profile (which includes all his credited songs) has now passed 8.7 billion streams, making him the first K-pop solo artist to achieve this.

Even during his military service, Jungkook’s voice continues to comfort fans and break records. Whether it’s through the cool, emotional feel of “Seven” or the bright energy of ‘GOLDEN’, fans around the world keep listening—and the numbers prove it.

Jungkook’s history-making run is far from over. And with fans cheering him on, his star will only shine brighter.
