Jungkook of the group BTS has set another record on the U.S. Billboard charts.

According to the latest chart released by the American music media Billboard on the 9th (local time), Jungkook’s solo album *Golden* ranked 28th on the main album chart ‘Billboard 200’ staying on the chart for 9 consecutive weeks. This is the longest duration for a K-pop solo artist’s album.

The title song “Standing Next to You” ranked 70th on this week’s ‘Hot 100’, climbing 27 steps from the previous week, and like the album, it has stayed on the chart for 9 consecutive weeks.

In addition, Jungkook re-entered the ‘Top 10’ of the ‘Global 200’ and ‘Global (excluding U.S.)’ charts. His solo single “Seven” took 9th place on the ‘Global 200’, and on the ‘Global (excluding U.S.)’ chart. The two songs “Seven” and “Standing Next to You” climbed from the previous week’s ranking 4th and 7th.

Meanwhile, member V entered several charts with “Wherever You Are”, a collaboration song with American singer-songwriter Umi, released on December 30th last year. It made its way into ‘Digital Song Sales’ (5th), ‘R&B Digital Song Sales’ (1st), ‘R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales’ (2nd), ‘Global (excluding U.S.)’ (64th), and ‘Global 200’ (99th). Jimin’s first solo album *Face* re-entered the ‘World Album’ at 12th, and its title song “Like Crazy” stayed on the ‘Global (excluding U.S.)’ (74th) and ‘Global 200’ (96th) charts for 41 consecutive weeks.

The track “00:00 (Zero O’Clock)” from BTS’s 4th regular album *Map of the Soul : 7*, released in 2020, made a surprising re-entry at 4th on the ‘World Digital Song Sales’, attracting attention.
