SEOUL, Oct. 10 (Korea Bizwire) — BTS member Jungkook reentered the top 10 on the U.S. Billboard’s Hot 100 songs chart with his latest single, “3D.”
Jungkook’s sophomore solo single, featuring American rapper Jack Harlow, debuted at No. 5, Billboard said Monday (U.S. time) in a preview of this week’s ranking.
This makes him the first member of the K-pop septet to reach the top 10 on the Hot 100 more than once with a solo project.
Released July 29, “3D” is an R&B pop song that wittily expresses one’s longing for an unattainable person from the perspectives of different dimensions.
The Hot 100 ranks the most popular songs of the week in the United States, measured by all-genre streaming, radio airplay and sales data.
The song has recorded 13.6 million streams, 3.1 million in radio airplay audience, and 87,000 physical and digital copies sold combined, according to Billboard.
It also said the tune launched at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. songs charts.
This marks his second solo No. 1 on the two global charts after his song “Seven,” featuring Latto, ruled for seven and nine weeks, respectively.
In July, the BTS vocalist recorded his first top 10 on the Hot 100 as a soloist with “Seven,” as the song debuted at No. 1.
Including Jungkook, all seven of the band’s members have appeared on the chart with solo songs. Jimin debuted at No. 1 with his first solo single, “Like Crazy,” in April, becoming the first K-pop soloist to top the chart.
As a group, BTS has already scored 10 top 10s, including six No. 1s.
“3D” also arrived on the British Official Singles Chart at No. 5.
“3D” and “Seven” will be included on Jungkook’s debut solo album, “Golden,” which will be released Nov. 3.
