BTS Jin, Japan Oricon Annual Chart K-pop Solo No. 1... Highest Ranking Improved for 3 Consecutive Years


BTS Jin once again proved his top popularity in Japan. According to the 2025 annual chart released by Oricon, Jin's solo album "Echo" ranked 39th, making it the highest-ranking K-pop solo artist. This was the only K-pop solo album to enter the chart, highlighting Jin's unparalleled popularity in Japan.

Jin's "Echo" also showed remarkable results on Billboard Japan's 2025 annual charts. The album ranked 24th on the "Download Albums Chart," the highest position among all K-pop artists, both groups and solo. Additionally, on Billboard Japan's 2025 annual "Top Album Sales Chart," Jin's "Echo" achieved 41st place, the highest record for a K-pop solo artist. Jin is the first K-pop solo artist to have all his solo albums released in 2022, 2024, and 2025 enter Billboard Japan's annual "Top Album Sales Chart," each album setting the highest rank for K-pop solo albums every year, creating a new history.

Jin also ranked 58th on the 2025 Billboard Japan annual Artist 100 chart, achieving the highest position among Korean male solo artists. These achievements serve as indicators of Jin's global popularity.

On the Oricon Weekly Video Chart released on February 5, Jin's solo concert Blu-ray "#RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR in JAPAN" took first place. This Blu-ray features Jin's Osaka Kyocera Dome concert, where he set a record by selling out all seats at the Kyocera Dome for a solo concert. The spectacular stage performance by Jin and the audience's wave motions became a major topic of discussion.

Jin's world tour Blu-ray "#RUNSEOKJIN_epTOUR in Japan" ranked first on Amazon Japan and Rakuten DVD/Blu-ray bestseller lists immediately after sales began, and also topped the Universal Music Japan Store's hit products, proving Jin's popularity. From June 28 to August 10 last year, Jin held his first solo fan concert and first solo world tour, "Run Seokjin Tour" (#RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR), performing 18 shows in 9 cities.

Jin set a new record as the highest-grossing Asian soloist in the global concert tour Top 20 selected by Pollstar, which ranks artists based on average box office revenue per city. In July last year, he set a new record as the highest-grossing Asian soloist on the Billboard Top Tour monthly chart. Furthermore, in August last year, Jin entered the Billboard Top Tour monthly chart again, achieving another Billboard Top Tour record as the Korean solo artist with the highest revenue from a European tour.

Jin ranked first among solo singers in average audience per show in the 2025 K-pop idol North American tour audience mobilization rankings, solidifying his status as a successful solo musician and global icon. These achievements demonstrate that Jin is firmly established as a representative artist of K-pop.
