BTS Jimin Reigns as 'April's Star' with Triple Crown on KM Chart
BTS member Jimin secured a triple crown by winning in all three categories on the KM Chart.
Jimin ranked first in both the 'Artist Preference for April' and 'Hot Choice Male Singer for April' categories on the K-Music Chart (KM Chart) held by Idol Champ from April 15th to 28th. At the same time, his song 'Like Crazy,' which shined as #1 on Billboard's Hot 100, also won in the 'Song Preference for April' category, making him the star of April with a total of three victories.
As a reward for ranking first, Jimin's 'Like Crazy' was automatically selected as a candidate for the Best KM in the second quarter. Additionally, a press release on the KM Chart rankings will be distributed, and promotional content will be provided on the official website and social media channels.
Organized by the Korea Management Federation (KMF), the KM Chart is a K-pop chart selected by global fans who love Korean culture to help them grasp K-pop global trends at a glance. The chart is divided into four sections: K-Music (songs), KM Artist, Hot Choice (popular male and female), and Rookie (new male and female) and is revealed monthly and quarterly. In particular, the monthly chart is published, and awards are given for each category every quarter, attracting public attention.
Jimin released his first solo album 'Face' after a decade since his debut, making history in K-pop as the first solo artist to top the Billboard Hot 100 and rank 2nd on the Billboard 200 Album Chart. April has been dubbed 'Jimin's month,' as he has been sweeping various global charts and receiving significant attention.
In addition, Jimin won first place in the Idol Champ's 'A-Champ Song for April' final vote, securing 48,309 votes (50.51%). As a reward, he will receive 1 million hearts and advertising on the 'Airport Railroad Digital Signage.'
Jimin also won first place in the 'Best Idol for January-March' vote held by Idol Champ from April 11th to 17th. As a result, special ads featuring Jimin can be seen at Tokyo's Shin-Okubo Station and Osaka's Umeda Station from May 1st to 7th.
