Jungkook’s Unbelievable K-pop Soloist Records Make History
BTS Jungkook recently achieved an astounding feat, crossing two billion streams on Spotify with his son, “Seven” and becoming the first K-pop soloist to gain this record. Within a few days later, Jungkook’s own group, BTS, joined the 2 billion streams on Spotify milestone club with their Billboard Hot 100 topper song, “Dynamite.”
However, Jungkook fans were angered as they claimed that BTS’ label, BigHit Music, only shared the group’s 2 billion streams achievement, not Jungkook’s historical features. Some lashed out at the label and commented on X, “Jungkook deserves better.”

Another enraged fan echoed the same emotion, writing: “I don’t understand them. Jungkook’s “Seven” featuring Latto was the first Asian act to reach 2 billion streams on Spotify, surpassing BTS’s “Dynamite,” and BigHit hasn’t published any articles about it yet. Nothing for any of Jungkook’s achievements? Why?

Jungkook’s “I Am Still” became International Box Office history’s eighth highest-grossing concert movie. It made over $15.7 million in revenue at the box office. The youngest Bangtan Boy joined the pop superstar club with Taylor Swift, Madonna, and Justin Beiber, whose concert movies made over $10 million in revenue from concert movies.
