BTS Jimin's 'Who' Crowned KingChoice April World Song #1 for 18th Time, Demonstrating Unrivaled Popularity

BTS member Jimin has once again proven his unrivaled global popularity, securing his 18th ‘World Song’ top spot with his latest track, ‘Who’.

The title track ‘Who’ from Jimin’s second solo album, ‘MUSE,’ claimed the number one position on King Choice’s ‘HOT 50 WORLD SONGS APRIL 2026,’ a global K-Pop fan voting site. The poll ran from April 1st to April 30th.

Jimin’s ‘Who’ amassed a total of 31,622 votes, marking its 18th victory on the chart. This achievement highlights the song’s enduring appeal and the unwavering dedication of fans, even 1 year and 10 months after its initial release.

Jimin’s chart domination is well-established. Previously, he achieved an impressive 14 months at number one, including seven consecutive months, with two tracks from his first solo album, ‘FACE’: the title track ‘Like Crazy’ and the pre-release single ‘Set Me Free Pt.2’.

Furthermore, Jimin has consistently showcased his immense popularity, first reaching the top of the ‘World Song Hot 50’ in June 2021 with his solo track ‘Filter’ from BTS’s 4th full album. He continued this streak with consecutive number-one spots in June and July 2022 for the tvN drama OST ‘With You’. By firmly securing the top spot in the April 2026 World Song vote, Jimin reinforces his status as a formidable ‘K-Pop frontman’.

Meanwhile, during his ongoing world tour, which kicked off after the release of his 5th full album ‘Arirang’ on March 20th, Jimin’s self-proposed long blonde hairstyle has garnered continuous buzz. Comparisons to “Northern Grand Duke,” “Bukcheong Lion Jimin,” “that blonde guy,” and “Game of Thrones” have earned him a variety of captivating nicknames, including “Stark Jimin” and “Targaryen Jimin,” solidifying his reputation as a true ‘fandom magnet’.
