BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan) Jin released a collaboration song 'Until It Reaches You' with ONE OK ROCK's Taka. Furthermore, his solo song ranked on the main song chart 'HOT100' of the American Billboard, proving his outstanding popularity. On the 26th (Korean time), according to a chart preview posted on Billboard's official SNS, Jin's solo album 'Happy' title track 'Running Wild' ranked 53rd on Billboard's 'HOT100' (dated November 30). This is Jin's second chart entry based on his solo songs, following his 1st solo single 'The Astronaut' released in 2022. With this, Jin has successfully made a comeback while emerging on all of Billboard's two major main charts. Previously, the album 'Happy,' which includes 'Running Wild,' was predicted to rank 4th on the latest 'Billboard 200' chart. Especially considering that many Christmas-related songs rank high during the year-end season, Jin's solid popularity can be seen. 'Running Wild' also ranked high on Billboard's major song charts, including 4th on 'Global (excluding the US)' and 5th on 'Global 200.' Released on November 15, 'Running Wild' is a pop rock genre song based on British rock with an impressive new wave sound. It carries Jin's bright and warm message of running breathlessly towards hope. Immediately after its release, the song achieved 'career highs' for Jin's solo tracks, ranking 8th on Spotify's 'Daily Top Songs Global' and 10th on 'Weekly Top Songs Global,' as well as 25th on the UK Official Singles Chart. Jin announced his new song 'Until It Reaches You (feat. Taka)' today (26th) at 2 PM. Taka, the vocalist of the band ONE OK ROCK, participated in the featuring, capturing the deepening feelings of love in the lyrics.
