Buckle up, because Jungkook – aka the Golden Maknae – has officially rewritten the K‑pop playbook. As of July 21, 2025, he’s become the first ever K‑pop soloist to score five songs, yes five, that each passed 1 billion streams on Spotify and YouTube combined. Let that sink in—this is not your snackable TikTok track, this is full-blown streaming domination.
Here’s the rolling highlight reel:
- Seven – a scorching solo debut from his album Golden, and yes, the lightning-fast chart-topper.
- Standing Next to You – another Golden banger continuing his 2023 roll.
- 3D – yes, that collab with Jack Harlow that crashed charts across the pond and beyond.
- Left and Right – the smooth collab with Charlie Puth that’s basically pop perfection since 2022.
- Dreamers – the FIFA World Cup 2022 anthem that had the world earworming and singing along.
Oh, and just for kicks—he’s even got Still With You shredding past a billion when you combine muddy SoundCloud uploads with the official stuff.
If you’re trying to grasp the absurdity of this achievement: three out of those five billion‑stream hits come from one solo album. And they all dropped just before he stormed off to the military in November 2023. Because of course he did.
Let’s not ignore the history books: Jungkook is literally the only BTS member who’s managed to launch into solo superstardom like this—and in five different flavors, all over the map. He’s bending genres, topping global charts, earning nicknames like “fastest billion streams on Spotify” (hitting that number in just 108 days with “Seven”) and shattering every milestone in sight.
What’s even wilder? “3D” joined him on the UK Singles Chart top 5—making him the first Korean solo artist with two top‑five hits there.
This isn’t just dominance—it’s historic, record‑breaking, once‑in‑a‑generation level. And the fans? They’re absolutely losing it. They’re calling it “golden for a reason,” and praise comments are raining from every corner of X (formerly Twitter).
So let’s be clear: Jungkook didn’t just dip a toe into solo territory—he built a hot tub, lit it on fire, and then casually lounged in it while dropping smash after smash. It’s not arrogance—it’s results. And we love him for it.
Three cheers for Jungkook—the kid from Busan who keeps proving that BTS’s global magic wasn’t a one‑off. He’s a multi‑platinum, multi‑genre, record‑smasher delivering for ARMYs worldwide. He’s golden; he’s streaming royalty; and yeah, we’re still picking our jaws up off the floor.
So next time Jungkook drops a song? Don’t blink—we might be witnessing another billion‑stream moment before the coffee cools.
