'With You' OST by Jimin and Ha Sungwoon took over the music world as soon as it was released, setting new records on every major music platform both in South Korea and internationally, including Melon, Apple Music, Spotify, Shazam, iTunes, and many more. The song made high debut rankings that also became new records on various music charts for any Korean OST, including the Billboard Global 200 &Global 200 (excl. US), country-based Billboard Hot 100 charts (including Japan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia), India's IMI International chart, Singapore's RIAS Top charts, Germany's Official Downloads chart, Netherlands Global Top 40 chart, New Zealand's Singles chart and Hungary's Singles chart to mention a few. The song was absolutely on fire.
The high ranking on these many charts internationally could have been expected based on the song's performance on Billboard's Hot Trending Songs chart powered by Twitter, which shows which song is being talked about the most as the hot new release. 'With You' only had four days and 10 hours of tracking for its debut week, but it managed to debut at #2 on the chart, after which it rose to first place and stayed at the top for five consecutive weeks [read here]. Jimin became the first and only artist to rank #1 on this chart both as a soloist and with a group, and he extended the record to a total of 5 weeks.
Now being the 10th week after release, 'With You' has returned to the #1 spot as per the chart dated July 9, and therefore Jimin has yet again extended his record as the first and only artist to rank first on the chart both as a soloist and with a group for a total of 6 weeks. In these ten weeks, the song has not left the top 3 spots either, showing how much enthusiasm the audience has for the song.
On a different chart, the Circle Chart, formerly known as Gaon chart, 'With You' is also proving its popularity among the masses. The Circle chart initiated a new ranking system called the 'Global K-pop Chart,' which considers worldwide K-pop streaming usage.
As of the latest ranking on this new ranking system which was updated on July 4, 'With You' landed the 12th position on the Daily chart, making it the ONLY Korean OST in the Top 20. Other older songs by Jimin like 'Filter' and 'Friends' also made it into the Top 200 of the same chart. The song also made it onto six different categories of the Weekly charts.
Congratulations jimin 🎉 we are so proud of you baby
