by. Gawon Park

BTS' Jungkook has once again secured the top spot. He has climbed to the top of the Billboard Global (excluding the United States) chart for the ninth consecutive week.

According to the latest Billboard chart (as of the 23rd), Jungkook claimed the number one position on the Billboard Global (excluding the United States) chart with his first solo single, "Seven." 

Among K-pop artists, he holds the record for the longest time at number one on this chart, surpassing the previous record held by BTS' "Dynamite" (8 weeks).

He also excelled on another sub-chart, ranking second on the "Billboard Global 200." After debuting at number one, he maintained the top spot for seven weeks and is currently still in the top ranks for the ninth week.

"Seven" is a song about wanting to be together with a loved one for the entire week. It features an addictive melody, acoustic guitar, and a UK garage rhythm. 

The song has gained global popularity, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and ranking third on the UK Official Singles Chart "Top 100." It also received the honor of being Billboard's "Song of the Summer."

Meanwhile, Jungkook will attend the "Global Citizen Festival" in New York City's Central Park on the 24th (Korean time) as a headliner.
