K-pop superstar Jungkook continues to make history as his 2023 hit song “Seven”, a collaboration with American rapper Latto, creates another record on the global charts.
The song, currently at number 80 this week at the Billboard Global 200, has now spent 62 weeks on the chart. It debuted on the weekly list on July 29, 2023, and stayed at number 1 for 7 weeks.
With the said record, “Seven” is now the longest-charting song by any Asian soloist on the Global 200.
The Billboard Global 200 is a weekly record that ranks the top songs globally and is based on digital sales and online streaming from over 200 territories worldwide.
“Seven” has been considered a major international hit, as it debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart and set a new record as the highest-debuting single by a solo Korean act in history.
It also broke the record for the fastest song in history to surpass one billion streams on Spotify, and eventually became the most-streamed collaboration of 2023 on the music platform.
Meanwhile, Jungkook is currently rendering his military service and is set to reunite with his group BTS in mid-2025.
