Jungkook’s “Seven” Creates New Milestone in K-pop
Jeon Jungkook’s solo debut was a much-awaited event for fans and a much-needed break that will allow the “Golden” crooner to show off his artistic prowess.

Jungkook’s “Seven” crossed 2 billion Spotify streams in October 2024, becoming the first K-pop act to achieve this record. After a few months, JK’s group BTS became the second K-pop act to achieve the same milestone with their hit song, “Dynamite.
Commenting on this impressive impact of the “Euphoria” singer, a fan posted on X: “Jungkook’s ‘Seven’ ft @Latto surpasses 2 BILLION streams on Spotify, achieving historic milestones as:
- The first song by a K-pop act to reach 2 billion streams
- The first song by an Asian act to reach 2 billion streams
- The fourth fastest song in history to surpass 2 billion streams
Another fan commented on the singer’s monumental records: “No other idol is or ever was like Jungkook; he is on par with the timeless legends. Some may not realize how fortunate we are to be contemporary to an artist of his caliber and to benefit from the boundless love and level of devotion he holds for his fans.”

Breaking Records: Jungkook Makes History with 8.1 Billion Spotify Streams
In a groundbreaking achievement that underscores the growing global influence of Asian artists, BTS’s Jungkook has shattered streaming records by accumulating over 8.1 billion streams on Spotify. This historic milestone, reached on January 20, 2025, marks him as the first Asian solo artist ever to cross this threshold, cementing his position as a global music powerhouse.
The achievement comes as his beloved solo track “Euphoria” surpasses 620 million streams on the platform, further solidifying its status as the most streamed BTS solo song. This isn’t just another number in Jungkook’s impressive catalog – it represents a paradigm shift in how Korean artists are received on global streaming platforms.
But Jungkook’s success isn’t just about his captivating voice or magnetic stage presence. Behind the scenes, he’s been quietly building his repertoire as a serious musician and songwriter. With 22 songwriting credits registered with the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA), he’s proving himself to be a multifaceted artist who can shape his musical vision from conception to execution.
His songwriting portfolio includes diverse works that showcase his artistic range:

- “Still With You” – A soulful composition that demonstrates his emotional depth
- “Run BTS” – A high-energy track that showcases his dynamic style
- “My Time” – A personal narrative transformed into musical artistry
What makes these achievements particularly remarkable is how they reflect Jungkook’s evolution from being the “Golden Maknae” (youngest member) of BTS to establishing himself as a formidable solo artist. While many knew him for his exceptional vocal abilities, his growth as a songwriter and producer demonstrates his commitment to musical craftsmanship.
The impact of these accomplishments extends beyond personal achievement – they’re helping to reshape the global music landscape, proving that language and cultural barriers continue to dissolve in today’s interconnected world. As streaming numbers continue to climb, Jungkook’s success story serves as an inspiration for aspiring Asian artists worldwide, showing that with talent, dedication, and artistic vision, there are no limits to what can be achieved in the global music industry.
