BTS' Jimin continues to set new records with his latest title track, Who. The song has now scripted history as the longest-charting by a K-pop soloist of this decade on the Billboard Hot 100. With this, the BTS member managed to overtake his own bandmate Jungkook, who also had a similar record on the chart previously.
According to updates on December 17, Jimin's Who has now spent 21 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. With this, it is now the longest-charting song by a Korean soloist this decade on the chart. The K-pop idol's title track has managed to overtake his own group song, Butter, My Universe, and bandmate Jungkook's Standing Next to You.
On the other hand, overall, Jimin's Who is now the fourth longest-charting song by a K-pop act on the Billboard Hot 100, following BTS' Dynamite, PSY's Gangnam Style, and FIFTY FIFTY's Cupid.
Congratulations, Jimin!
Released on July 19, 2024, Who is the title track for Jimin's sophomore solo album, MUSE. The immaculate lyrics of the song explore the singer's feelings toward an idealized love. He is captivated by the thoughts of someone he loves but someone he has never met in real life. The latter verses of the song talk about how he grapples with agony as this imaginary person doesn't want to come forward. The cinematic music video captures great scenarios and a phenomenal performance by Jimin.
