BTS Jimin Expresses Gratitude as 'Like Crazy' Tops Billboard Hot 100: 'Still Feels Unreal'
BTS member Jimin expressed deep gratitude and love for fans as he wrapped up his solo activities.
On the 5th, Jimin left a message for fans on their official fan communication platform. He started by saying, "Hello, ARMY, it's Jimin. I still can't believe that my activities have come to an end, and the Billboard charts feel unreal as well. I wonder if the activities ended too quickly, even though I prepared diligently."
Jimin continued, "I had a lot of trouble figuring out what to say to express my gratitude to all of you, as no matter how I put it in writing, it would never be enough. But, I still don't know what to say or how to describe my feelings. I just always feel that the love you give me is so immense. That's why I feel so happy and joyful."
According to the latest chart (April 8th) announced by US music media Billboard on the 4th (local time), the title track "Like Crazy" from Jimin's solo album "FACE," released on the 24th of last month, ranked first on the main singles chart "Hot 100" as the first Korean solo artist to do so.
In addition, "Like Crazy" topped the "Digital Song Sales" and "World Digital Song Sales" charts, ranked 2nd on both "Global 200" and "Global (excluding the US)," and 35th on the "Streaming Songs" chart. Not only "Like Crazy," but other tracks from the album, such as the pre-released song "Set Me Free Pt.2" (5th), "Face-off" (8th), "Alone" (12th), and "Interlude: Dive" (15th), also placed high on the "Digital Song Sales" chart.
"FACE" ranked 2nd on the main album chart "Billboard 200" and topped the "Top Album Sales," "Top Current Album," and "World Album" charts.
Jimin also said, "I sincerely thank you for making an album containing just ordinary stories about me a valuable one. I will never take for granted everything I've received thanks to the support and love from all of you. I want to become a singer who makes you proud."
Lastly, Jimin expressed his gratitude to fans, saying, "I'm proud to be a part of BTS and feel happy to have met ARMY. I hope we can be together forever. Sincerely. That's the only way I can repay you, even a little. I'm grateful for everything and sending you more than just love."
