'BTS' Jungkook has added another record to the Guinness World Records (GWR).
On the 20th (Korean time), Guinness posted an article on their official MENA (Middle East and North Africa) chart website. Jungkook was selected as the 'Most Number 1 Hit on the Official MENA Chart Artist.'
The Official MENA Chart is the first official chart in the Middle East and North Africa, starting in Lebanon in 2012. Rankings are based on platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Anghami.
Jungkook has mega-hit three songs in total. His first solo single 'Seven' topped the chart for 8 days (July 20-27). '3D' also claimed the top spot for 8 consecutive days (October 5-12).
His solo studio album 'GOLD' also gained popularity. The title track 'Standing Next to You' maintained the top position for 8 days locally (November 9-16).
This marks his fifth Guinness record. Jungkook holds numerous Guinness records, including being the K-pop solo artist achieving 10 billion streams on Spotify in the shortest period.
Meanwhile, BTS, including Jungkook, is currently fulfilling their mandatory military service. They are scheduled to resume full-group activities in the second half of 2025.
