ARMY Charting BTS Hits During Their Military Service

Koreaboo reports that BTS' Spring Day has dethroned Mariah Carey's perennial holiday charttopper All I Want For Christmas Is You on US iTunes today, December 12, 2023. This coincides with the military enlistment of the last two BTS members, Jimin and Jungkook, who applied under the buddy soldier system. This may also be a result of organic ARMY action as a result of their reactions to the military enlistment. The 2017 hit has been the longest-charting song on the Melon Chart since its release 6 years ago. As of this writing, Spring Day is #1 on iTunes in 68 countries (photo below, from music charts aggregator kworb.net).

Best Albums of the Year (2023) Accolades for BTS

Rolling Stone ranks SUGA’s ‘D-DAY’ among the 100 best albums of 2023 (at number #69).

"D-DAY, the third release BTS’ Suga has put out as Agust D, is a tight 10-track collection that lyrically and musically probes the concept of freedom — what it means, whether it’s a blessing or a curse. Take the double-entendre title of the thundering “Haegeum,” which wraps around a drone from the two-stringed traditional Korean instrument of the same name. “Haegeum” also can be translated as “liberation,” and Agust D unpacks that idea in knotty, spat-out rhymes that take aim at conformity, the trappings of “success,” and information overload. Meanwhile, “Life Goes On” hints at a brighter future, or at least one where life’s big questions loom a little less ominously."

Previously in 2022, Rolling Stone ranked J-hope's Jack In The Box at #9.
