BTS's Jimin, 300th 1st place on Korean Spotify Top Artist Chart,

This is the first and only record of the 300th 1st place in the history of this chart. Jimin also topped the Korean Spotify Weekly Top Artist Chart (April 26th to May 2nd) on May 3rd, becoming the first and only solo artist to top the chart for 45 consecutive weeks. 

The Spotify Top Artist Chart ranks artists based on the most streams recorded on the respective day or week. Jimin has maintained the top spot for a long time with both the title track 'Like Crazy' and other tracks from the 'FACE' album and collaborative songs attracting consistent popularity. 'Like Crazy,' which became the first solo K-pop artist to top the global Spotify Top Song Chart, achieved the unique feat of being the first song to reach 200th place on the daily chart since Spotify's launch in Korea on April 25th. 

It also secured the 30th place on the weekly chart announced on the 26th. As of the chart update until May 6th, Jimin has recorded the 211th 1st place on the daily chart and the 31st consecutive 1st place on the weekly chart, continuing to renew the record for the most 1st place songs on the Korean Spotify Top Song Chart. 

Meanwhile, Jimin was recorded as the artist with the most streams in Korea in 2023 according to Spotify's year-end campaign, RAPPED, and continues to demonstrate an unparalleled presence at the top of both music and artist charts, even during his military service.
