How Jungkook, China, Jimin, India, Suga, Faker & An Elephant Changed The World | 2023 In Review

JIMIN BREAKS A 60-YEAR DROUGHT

There had only been 9 acts to land a #1 in Billboard hot 100 with a non-english song and only 1 Asian act to do so. Kyu Sakamoto with Ue O Muite Aruko, also known as Sukiyak, bagged the top spot back in 1963, 60 years ago. That is until Jimin barges in with Like Crazy. With virtually no radio support and US promotion, totally unaccompanied, Jimin touched the summit reinforcing a message BTS started delivering, the market wants them and this is why - quality music.

JUNGKOOK COULD BE THE NEXT POP SUPERSTAR THE US DESPERATE WANTS

Jungkook hits the top spot in Billboard Hot 100 with Seven, becoming the third Asian and second BTS member to do so. That is not all though. Jungkook absolutely whacked everyone in the chart. He is the first Asian born and bred singer to spend five consecutive weeks in the Top 40 of the Billboard 200, proving his solo power on the global stage.
