In an especially banner week for K-pop, Stray Kids also debut in the top 10 of both Global Excl. U.S. and Global 200 with “Chk Chk Boom,” at Nos. 4 and 10, respectively, as they earn their second top 10 on each list. As previously reported, Stray Kids’ and Jimin’s new albums, ATE and MUSE, launch at Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, on the U.S.-based Billboard 200 – marking the first time that K-pop albums claim the top two spots on the survey simultaneously.
Elsewhere, Sevdaliza, Pabllo Vittar and Yseult’s viral hit “Alibi” reaches the Global Excl. U.S. top 10, rising 11-9.
The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
Jimin’s “Who,” released July 19, bounds onto the Global 200 with 90.5 million streams and 129,000 sold worldwide through July 25.
Here’s a rundown, ranked by peak position, of BTS members’ 12 Global 200 top 10s outside the act – one more than BTS has achieved as a group. Jung Kook boasts three solo No. 1s and Jimin now has one; BTS has tallied seven as a group:
“Standing Next to You,” Jung Kook, No. 1 (one week), November 2023
“3D,” Jung Kook & Jack Harlow, No. 1 (one week), October 2023
“Seven,” Jung Kook feat. Latto, No. 1 (seven weeks), beginning July 2023
“Who,” Jimin, No. 1 (one week, to date), August 2024
“Like Crazy,” Jimin, No. 2, April 2023
“Slow Dancing,” V, No. 4, Se
