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 Jungkook’s ‘Seven’ tops two major global Billboard charts for three consecutive weeks.. a new record as the first and longest by a solo Asian artist.

Particularly, Jungkook has proven himself to be a “global trend pop star” by maintaining the top spot for three consecutive weeks on both the “Global 200” and “Global” (excluding the United States) charts, which are considered as major charts along with the Billboard main singles chart “Hot 100”, making him the first and longest-running Asian solo artist to achieve this feat.

In its third week, “Seven” showed impressive streaming numbers, surpassing popular songs by worldwide artists such as Travis Scott x Drake’s “Meltdown”, Nicki Minaj x Ice Spice’s “Barbie World”, Dua Lipa’s “Dance The Night”, Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire”, and Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” to sweep the top spot on both charts.

Previously, “Seven” made a remarkable achievement in K-pop history by entering and immediately reaching the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, which is considered the highest authority in the American music industry, and staying in the top 10 for two consecutive weeks. In the issue dated August 12, it continued to stay on the Hot 100 chart for three consecutive weeks, ranking at No. 30, and also reached No. 20 on the Pop Airplay chart and No. 25 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart.

Furthermore, “Seven” set a debut record by becoming the solo artist with the most weekly streaming on the Billboard Global 200 chart, with 217.1 million streams, and the artist with the most weekly sales worldwide, both as a group and as a solo artist, with 269,000 copies sold.

BTS’s Jungkook has officially been included in three new records in the English Guinness World Records and Spotify, with the most and shortest streaming records of any male artist in the world. He is truly a “world-class pop star”.
