Jimin Soars Back Into The Top 10 With One Of His Biggest Career Hits

Jimin’s “Who” is rising on charts all around the world this week, pushed forward not only by continued streams and sales, but also by a lack of competition. This frame is the first in some time in which Christmas cuts aren’t either completely dominating, or beginning their annual ascents. Now that those songs have tumbled and slipped silently away for another year, there’s more space for current smashes, and the BTS star leaps up several important tallies in their absence.

“Who” appears on four charts published by Billboard this week. The single returns to one—which is perhaps the most important of the bunch—while also surging on the other three. It even manages to make a home once again inside the top 10 on two highly competitive tallies.

The South Korean musician’s current smash bolts into the loftiest space on both of Billboard’s worldwide rankings, which show what the human race is both buying and streaming. “Who” jumps from No. 44 to No. 9 on the Billboard Global Excl. US (which features no consumption data from the U.S.), and it nearly mirrors that showing on the Billboard Global 200. On that tally, the song improves from No. 46 to No. 10.

“Who” is not new to the top 10 on either of those lists. Jimin conquered the two charts with his single when it was new, and it has now lived on the rankings for 24 weeks.

As it hits the top 10 on those two global rosters, “Who” is also a huge win again in the United States. Jimin reappears on the Hot 100 at No. 24, breaking back onto what is usually considered the most competitive and most important roster in the country. “Who” can carve out space on that tally once more now that dozens of Christmas tunes have vacated the busy roster.

“Who” even manages to reach a new all-time peak on one additional list in America. The cut jumps from No. 49—second-to-last place—to No. 13 on the Streaming Songs chart. That lucky position turns out to be a career high for Jimin, and it’s a loftier-than-ever position for the tune as well.

As “Who” keeps racking up what must be a huge number of streams, as well as a fair number of sales, the single is keeping Jimin’s solo album Muse on the charts as well. That short project, which features “Who” on its tracklist, pushes almost 40 spaces on the Billboard 200, moving from No. 142 to No. 106. Plays of the latest single from the project are largely to thank for its placement, as well as the 11,200 equivalent units it moved last frame (per Luminate).
