‘Congratulations Jimin’: Fans Pour Their Heart Out as Jimin Becomes First Korean Soloist To Hit #1 On Global Spotify Chart
The release of Jimin’s debut album Face, was eagerly anticipated by BTS fans. The excitement was increased by the producers who were involved in the album. As soon as the album was released, all BTS fans started streaming and purchasing it on different platforms.
And as a result, Park Ji-min aka Jimin has become the first Korean solo artist to reach the top spot on the global Spotify chart. Additionally, a Korean soloist has sold over a million songs on Hanteo Chart. Currently, it is at its highest level ever. It is not at all surprising given the tremendous hype surrounding his album Face.
The BTS member has become the first Korean soloist to hit #1 on global Spotify streams for three of his solo songs, setting a record that is currently unmatched by any other Korean musician. The information was made public by Chart data, which is intended to tweet whenever a song by an artist receives more than 100 million Spotify streams.
Jimin’s beloved fans are now congratulating him on reaching this new milestone and are extremely proud of it.
Fans Are All In Praise for The Record Maker- Jimin
As of April 2020, Park Jimin’s Lie, which he released as a solo artist, had amassed over 100 million streams, according to the music streaming service, Spotify. His Serendipity followed it, and in September 2020, it reached another 100 million streams. Then, on November 10, his song Filter broke his previous Spotify record by passing the 100 million view threshold.
Jimin has now achieved another victory with his debut album, Face. The member of BTS has just become the first K-pop soloist in Hanteo history to sell more than a million copies in a single day on global Spotify. Fans couldn’t be happier and proud of his solo debut’s huge success in just one day.
