군백기 없다..방탄소년단 ‘봄날’ 6년 만 역주행, 83개 지역 깜짝 1위 그룹 방탄소년단(BTS, RM 진 슈가 제이홉 지민 뷔 정국)의 ‘봄날’이 6년 만에 또 한번 글로벌 차트를 강타했다. 지난 13일 일본 오리콘 차트가 발표한 ‘데일리 디지털 싱글 랭킹'(12월 12일 자)에서 방탄소년단이 2017년 발매한 ‘WINGS 외전: YOU NEVER WALK ALONE’의 타이틀곡 ‘봄날’이 깜짝 1위에 올랐다. 이 차트의 순위권 밖에 자리했던 ‘봄날’이 순위가 급상승하며 1위로 직행한 것이다. 또한 ‘봄날’은 12일부터 14일 오전 8시까지 기준으로 미국, 일본, 독일, 영국, 프랑스 등을 비롯해 총 83개 국가/지역의 아이튠즈 ‘톱 송’ 차트 1위를 찍었다. 다수의 국가/지역 ‘톱 송’ 차트에서 연말을 맞아 캐럴(Carol) 장르가 강세를 보이는 가운데, 머라이어 캐리(Mariah Carey)의 메가 히트곡 ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’를 제치고 ‘봄날’이 차트 정상에 올라 눈길을 끈다. 이 같은 ‘봄날’의 역주행에는 아미(ARMY. 팬덤명)의 저력이 있었다. 지난 12일부로 전원 군 복무에 돌입한 방탄소년단의 오는 2025년 완전체 활동을 기다리는 팬들의 따뜻한 마음이 차트에 반영된 것으로 예상된다. 한편, ‘봄날’은 브릿 록(Brit-rock)적인 감성과 일렉트로닉 사운드가 결합된 얼터너티브 힙합(Alternative hip-hop) 장르의 곡으로, RM과 슈가가 작곡에 참여해 멀어진 친구와의 만남을 기다리며 희망을 잃지 않겠다는 메시지를 곡에 담았다.

BTS Jimin’s ‘Like Crazy’ becomes the best Korean song on Billboard’s ‘Hot 100’ in 2023, creating ‘history’ with fans from all over the world.



BTS member Jimin’s “Like Crazy” has been recognized as one of the best Korean songs to top the Billboard Hot 100 in 2023, shining a light on its global popularity.

According to Chart Essentials, which provides real-time updates on global music charts, Jimin’s “Like Crazy” ranked 6th among the songs that topped the 2023 Billboard Hot 100, with 319 points, making it the highest-ranking Korean song for both solo and group artists.

As of July 29th, “Like Crazy” was the only Korean-language song among the 25 songs that topped this year’s Billboard Hot 100. This is an amazing achievement that was accomplished solely by Jimin and his fans worldwide, without the support of massive advertising, Spotify playlists, or radio promotions, beating out other famous pop stars.

In particular, among the new songs released in 2023, “Like Crazy” is the third-highest ranking song after Miley Cyrus’s “Flowers” and Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night”, making Jimin the first and only Korean solo artist to top the “Artist 100” chart and rise to fame as a global pop icon.

According to the latest Billboard chart as of July 29th, “Like Crazy” climbed one step to 2nd place on the “World Digital Song Sales” chart, the chart that has seen the most 1st place rankings among Korean solo songs over the past 10 years, marking its 13th week on the chart.

On the “Global 200” chart, which set the highest sales records for Korean solo artists, “Like Crazy” rose to 29th place, and on the “Global (excluding the US)” chart, it rose to 20th place, both charts seeing a significant increase from the previous week, continuing its 17-week run of popularity.

Jimin’s album “FACE” has made history as the first Korean solo album to top the “World Album” chart for four consecutive weeks and remain in the top 10 for 14 consecutive weeks. This week, it reversed course for the second week in a row, ranking 9th. In the “Top Album Sales” and “Top Current Album Sales” charts, it ranked 82nd and 45th, respectively, for 17 consecutive weeks in all three categories.



Jimin participated in the first Korean singer vocal for the movie ‘Fast and Furious 10’ OST ‘Angel Pt.1’. The song has been charting for nine consecutive weeks, ranking 148th on the ‘Global 200’ chart and 107th on the ‘Global (excluding the US)’ chart. This is a remarkable achievement as it marks two songs entering the charts alongside ‘Like Crazy’.
