BTS (BTS) Jungkook has made a new history by setting a world-class streaming record with his first solo song.

According to the official account of the World Music Awards (WMA), Jungkook's debut song "Seven" topped Spotify's most streamed song released in 2023. As a result, Jungkook became the first K-pop artist to top Spotify's streaming list among songs released in a specific year. The account praised Jungkook by attaching the modifier "HISTORY MAKER."

Pop Core, an overseas music media outlet, also reported that Jungkook's song "Seven" topped Spotify's most streamed songs in 2023, beating Miley Cyrus' "Flowers." Pop Core said the achievement was significant in that it was recorded alongside representative songs of global pop stars.

Justin Bieber and The Kid Laroi's "STAY" in 2021, Harry Styles' "As It Was" in 2022, and Billie Eilish's "BIRDS OF A FEATHER" in 2024 were recorded as the most streaming songs representing each year, and Jungkook's "Seven" was also listed.

As of the 25th, "Seven" achieved 2,764,713,697 cumulative streams. As of the same day, it ranked 69th out of all songs in Spotify's history, entering the top 60 for the first time.

The song has reached 100 million streams, 900 million streams, 1 billion streams, and 1.1 billion streams in the earliest period in Spotify's history. It also topped the daily chart 'Daily Top Song Global' for the first time in 71 days, and topped the 'Weekly Top Song Global' for nine consecutive weeks, the longest among male songs worldwide in 2023.

Jungkook's "Seven" continues to enter the chart for 132 weeks, the first and longest period of Asian solo singers, on "Weekly Top Song Global," one of Spotify's major charts.

Jungkook was officially listed in the Guinness World Records with this song, setting a total of four world records, including 1 billion streams in the shortest period before filtering, 89,748,171 weekly streams after filtering, 100 million streams in the shortest period after filtering, and 3 No. 1 songs on the International Music Industry Association (IFPI) "MENA" chart.
