BTS's Jimin, who is often referred to as a 'world-class' artist, continues to set remarkable records even during the group's inactive period.

According to a report by the American K-pop media outlet 'Allkpop' on the 17th (local time), Jimin reigns as the king on the media platform 'iTunes.'

Jimin achieved the fastest record of reaching 1st place on iTunes in 100 countries with his song 'With You,' without any prior reservations, only considering real-time purchases made immediately upon release. In the ranking of records for the fastest 1st place in 100 countries, 'Set Me Free' took the 2nd spot, and 'Like Crazy' took the 3rd spot.

Furthermore, Jimin is currently the world's only artist to top the all-genre song chart in 119 countries on iTunes, including 'Like Crazy' and a total of 3 songs.

He has the most songs reaching 1st place on iTunes in the US, the UK, and France among all Korean solo artists, and he has achieved 1st place in over 100 countries on iTunes for a total of 6 songs, the most among Korean solo artists.

Even before his official solo debut, Jimin held the record for the most 1st place rankings in iTunes history. He achieved the record for the most 1st place rankings in the B-side category on iTunes with the hit solo performance song 'Filter,' included in BTS's album 'MOTS:7,' from a total of 117 songs.

On the 15th, Jimin reached 1st place on the all-genre song chart on iTunes in Germany, achieving 1st place in 118 countries, further expanding this record as the B-side song with the most 1st place rankings in iTunes history.

All eyes are now on Jimin's future activities.

Meanwhile, BTS, to which Jimin belongs, is taking a break from full group activities due to the members' military service. Currently, Jin, J-Hope, and Suga have enlisted, and it has been announced that the remaining members, RM, V, and Jungkook, will also enlist sequentially.
