BTS member Jimin has made a significant impact on the UK Singles Chart with his latest song, "Who." Released under BigHit Entertainment, "Who" has debuted at number four. This achievement marks the highest new entry on the chart this week and sets a new personal best for Jimin. His previous highest was with his 2023 release "Like Crazy," which reached number eight.

"Who" is the lead track from Jimin’s second studio album, "MUSE." With this release, Jimin has now secured his third top 40 hit in the UK. His earlier song, "Set Me Free Pt.2," peaked at number 30 last year.

BTS, Jimin's group, has a strong presence on the UK charts with nine top 40 singles. 

The group has also had four songs in the top 10: "Dynamite" and "Life Goes On" in 2020, "Butter" in 2021, and "My Universe," a collaboration with Coldplay. Each of these tracks reached number three at their peak.

Currently, the top spot on the Official UK Singles Chart is held by Sabrina Carpenter with her song "Please Please Please." This track has now been at number one for four non-consecutive weeks. Carpenter's previous number-one song, "Espresso," has fallen to number nine. In total, Carpenter has spent 11 weeks at the top of the chart this year.

The second place on the chart is occupied by Billie Eilish’s "Birds of a Feather," which has risen from number five. 

Chappell Roan’s "Good Luck Babe" has moved up to number three from its previous position at six.
