Jimin made history by becoming the first Korean solo artist to reach the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Artist 100. He is also only the seventh K-pop artist, including groups such as BTS, SuperM, BLACKPINK, Stray Kids, TWICE, and TXT, to top the chart.

 

According to the Korean tabloid Soompi, Jimin’s first solo album FACE topped three separate charts this week. In addition to entering the Billboard 200 at No. 2, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart, Top Current Album Sales chart, and World Albums chart.

 

Additionally, ‘Like Crazy,’ the album's title track, topped three charts, including Billboard's Hot 100 (marking his first solo No. 1 hit and making him the first South Korean soloist to achieve this feat), Digital Song Sales chart, and World Digital Song Sales chart. It also debuted at No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart, at No. 2 on both Billboard’s Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. chart this week.

 

As noted by Soompi, ‘Like Crazy’ is Jimin’s second unaccompanied solo entry on the Hot 100 after his pre-release track ‘Set Me Free Pt. 2’ debuted at No. 30 last week. The new entry breaks PSY’s record for highest-charting Korean soloist and makes him the first BTS member to rank within the top 20 of this chart.
