On the 26th (local time), BTS Jimin's new solo song "Who" reached 4th place on the UK's official single chart, breaking his own record.

This chart entry is Jimin's sixth solo song in his career and his highest ranking. Jimin, who first appeared on the official charts with 'VIBE (feat. Jimin of BTS)' released last year, has since entered the charts with a number of songs, including 'Set Me Free Pt.2', 'Like Crazy', and the movie 'Fast or Die' OST 'Angel Pt.1 (feat. Jimin of BTS, JVKE & Muni Long / FAST X Soundtrack)', and 'Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco)'.

'Who' swept the top spot on various detailed charts, including 'Single Sales', 'Single Download', and 'Physical Single Sales'. In addition, Jimin's second solo album 'MUSE' reached number 56 on the official album chart, making it Jimin's first solo album. The album also ranked high in 'Album Download'(3rd place) and 'Album Sales'(14th place).



Spotify's performance is also notable. 'Who' topped the Spotify 'Weekly Top Song Global' chart last week and remained on top of the `Daily Top Song Global' chart for three consecutive days (23-25 days). 'MUSE' reached No. 3 on Spotify 'Weekly Top Albums Global' chart and ranked No. 1 in eight countries/regions, including Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, making the top 10 in a total of 19 countries/regions.

Meanwhile, 'MUSE', which was released on the 19th, contains six of the seven songs that Jimin himself wrote and composed. The album is about a journey to find inspiration surrounding 'I', and the title song 'Who' is a hip-hop R&B genre that contains affectionate feelings and confusion about missing someone you've never met.
