"Seven" made its debut at Hot 100 on July 24, local time, when Billboard announced that the track had officially joined the chart's top 10. This achievement alone is huge leap for Jungkook as a soloist, since it records the most popular songs in the United States.
Moreover, this is also Jungkook's first time to enter Hot 100 and became the second Korean soloist to land on the chart's No. 1 following fellow bandmate BTS Jimin.
The "Seven" singer also joined his own group BTS, the only other Korean act to claim Hot 100's No. 1. Jungkook achieved the feat for the week ending on July 29.
From July 14 to 20, Luminate recorded the data of "Seven," which comprised of 153,000 song downloads and CD Singles, trailed by 21.9 million streams, and 6.4 million radio airplay hits. "Seven" also made its first entry at No. 1 on both Global 200, as well as Global Excl. U.S. chart.
