BTS Jin Tops TMA, Achieves Spotify Global No.1 and U.S. Sales Record — Solo Tour Sells Out Worldwide
Jin Leads TMA Summer Category and Breaks Records with Echo
BTS member Jin dominated summer 2025 with major milestones. At The Fact Music Awards (TMA), he took first place in the Fan & Star “Best Music – Summer” category with Don’t Say You Love Me, beating 19 other finalists including SEVENTEEN, J-Hope, and TXT.
The track also made history by topping Spotify’s Global Chart on May 25, making Jin the first Asian artist in 2025 to achieve this with a newly released song.
His album Echo further proved his impact, ranking as the best-selling Korean solo album in pure U.S. sales for the first half of 2025, according to Chart Data — despite releasing on May 16.
