Jungkook’s solo debut single “Seven” ranked No. 60 on Spotify’s Weekly Top Songs Global chart for the period of December 5–11, recording over 13.3 million streams during the week. The song climbed four spots from the previous week, once again demonstrating its strong streaming power.
“Seven” has now entered the chart for 126 weeks, marking the longest-running chart entry ever for a song by an Asian solo artist. It is also the first song by an Asian artist to surpass 2.69 billion streams on Spotify and is approaching the 2.7 billion milestone.

In addition, Jungkook’s first solo album “GOLDEN” ranked No. 76 on Spotify’s Weekly Top Albums Global chart for the same period.
“GOLDEN” has charted for 110 weeks, setting another record as the longest-charting album by an Asian solo artist. The album continues to show strong longevity, drawing approximately 4.5 million daily streams on Spotify.
“GOLDEN” has also surpassed 6.5 billion cumulative streams, becoming the most-streamed studio album by an Asian artist on the platform.

Jungkook’s personal Spotify profile has reached a historic milestone as well, surpassing 10.1 billion total streams across all credits, making him the fastest Asian artist and the first K-pop solo artist to achieve this feat.

Meanwhile, in Spotify’s recently released year-end report “2025 Wrapped,” Jungkook ranked No. 8 in the “Global Top K-Pop Artists of the Year” category. He was the No. 1 most-streamed K-pop male solo artist globally and the only artist to enter the Top 10 in this category.
