‘Dynamite’ chart in the 32nd week… Breaking the record of’Gangnam Style’ 8 years ago
Group BTS”Dynamite’ has been listed on the American Billboard Single Chart’Hot 100′ for 32 weeks. According to Billboard on the 6th (hereafter local time),’Dynamite’ ranked 30th. It fell slightly from the 26th place in the previous week, but it remains at the top and is proving global popularity that does not cool off.

Billboard excludes songs on the chart for more than 20 weeks from the’Hot 100′ chart if they fall outside the 50th place. We stand to reflect the latest hit song flow. ‘Dynamite’ has not fallen outside the top 50 until now since it entered the’Hot 100′. At the same time as the world release on August 21, last year, it was the first Korean singer to reach the top of the’Hot 100′ three times, including two consecutive weeks.

The rankings have declined little by little this year, but they have recently rebounded. At the ‘2021 Grammy Awards’, the most prestigious music awards ceremony in the United States, held on the 14th of last month, BTS performed a solo performance with this song, and then ran backwards for two weeks in a row. With this, BTS has set the record for the longest’Hot 100′ in Korean singer songs.

On the same chart, the record, the longest chart set by a Korean singer, is 31 weeks set by Psy’s’Gangnam Style’ from 2012 to 2013. It was the first record I wrote as a Korean singer. Bulletproof Boy Scouts broke this record of senior singers in 8 years.
With a tradition of over 60 years, the American Billboard Chart has long felt like a’wall’ to Korean singers. After constantly knocking on the door, in 2009, the group Wonder Girls entered 76th place on the’Hot 100′ chart, the first Korean singer with’Nobody’. Since then,’Gangnam Style’ enjoyed tremendous popularity and held second place in’Hot 100′ for 7 consecutive weeks. K-pop singers who dreamed of entering the billboard themselves are now writing a new history using the billboard as a playground.
