BTS’s Jimin claimed a historic milestone when his solo album MUSE became the longest-charting K-pop album on the Billboard 200 in 2024, a record certified by the K-Pop Records Library on March 27, 2025. Released on July 19, 2024, under HYBE, the seven-track EP charted for 16 weeks, debuting at No. 2 and maintaining a steady presence, driven by its lead single “Who” and ARMY’s relentless support.

MUSE, Jimin’s second solo project, outlasted other 2024 K-pop releases, surpassing TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s Minisode 3: TOMORROW (6 weeks) and TWICE’s With YOU-th (5 weeks), per posts on X. Its 141,000 equivalent album units in its debut week, including 114,000 traditional sales, per Billboard, fueled its longevity, while “Who” hit No. 14 on the Hot 100. By March 2025, MUSE remained a fan favorite, with over 1.2 billion Spotify streams for “Who” alone, per X posts.

The K-Pop Records Library awarded Jimin a certificate, honoring MUSE’s 16-week run as a testament to his global influence and K-pop’s growing US chart dominance in 2024.
