The Song debuted at #114 on the Spotify's Global Top 200 chart, the highest entry for a Korean soloist. But it was also the biggest debut day for any Korean Soloist with 873,284 streams. The day after it was already at #14 on the chart. Currently, the song accumulated over 11,6 million streams.

Now one week later and RM broke another record. With 6,362,344 monthly Spotify listeners, he has the highest peak for any Korean Soloist. Beating out the former record held by Jennie of Blackpink.

Seoul was one of my absolute favourite songs of last year. I'm glad to see it got the recognition it deserves. I'm really happy to see that RM is finally getting the recognition he deserves, BTS and ARMY really lucked out with our leader. 😊💜
