BTS member Jimin has achieved yet another milestone with his solo album FACE. The album has been breaking records ever since its release, and it has now hit another remarkable achievement. FACE has become the fastest K-pop solo album to gather more than one billion streams on Spotify.

The album reached 772 million streams on Spotify on July 13, 2023, securing the title of the most streamed album by a Korean solo artist in Spotify's history. It achieved this feat in just 110 days.
