BTS’ Jimin's solo track 'Like Crazy' has captivated fans since its release in 2023. Debuting atop the Billboard Hot 100 and breaking numerous Hanteo records, this hit song has maintained its momentum.

On June 2, chart data revealed that 'Like Crazy' re-peaked at No 1 on
Spotify's Top 50 Daily Songs Chart in South Korea. This milestone
comes nearly a year and two months after its release on March 24,
2023. Reclaiming the top spot, 'Like Crazy' surpassed NewJeans’
recently released track 'How Sweet' and aespa’s 'Supernova'. Jimin's
success on the charts is further complemented by his bandmate
Jungkook’s solo track 'Seven' featuring Latto (explicit version)
holding strong at No 5, and the English version of 'Like Crazy'
climbing to No 7 on Spotify's Daily Top Songs chart in South Korea.

'Like Crazy' has maintained a strong presence on various music charts
for over a year. The song made history as the first solo by a K-pop
artist to debut at No 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It remains the
only K-pop solo track to chart on Spotify Global Top Songs for over a
year. As of last week, 'Like Crazy' celebrated its 30th consecutive
week on the Spotify Weekly Top Songs Chart in the US, standing firm at
No 91.

Serving as the lead track for Jimin’s debut solo studio album 'FACE',
'Like Crazy' is a synth-pop anthem that transcends language, borders,
and cultures, reinforcing Jimin's global appeal.

Jimin is a prominent member of the K-pop sensation BTS, which debuted
under BIGHIT MUSIC (formerly BIGHIT Entertainment) in 2013 alongside
Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, RM, V, and Jungkook. Jimin’s solo work began with
tracks like 'Lie' (2016), 'Serendipity' (2017), 'Promise' (2018), and
'Filter' (2020). In 2023, ahead of his military enlistment, Jimin
officially launched his solo career with the extended play 'FACE'.

Jimin’s solo endeavours have not only garnered commercial success but
also showcased his versatility as an artist. 'Like Crazy' has set a
new benchmark for K-pop soloists.
