BTS has achieved significant milestones on both the Oricon and Billboard charts. Their hit song "Dynamite" has become the first track by a foreign artist to surpass 900 million streams on the Oricon streaming chart, while the title track "SWIM" from their fifth studio album "ARIRANG" has made a remarkable climb on the Billboard Hot 100, charting for two consecutive weeks.

According to the latest Oricon weekly streaming rankings announced on June 10, BTS's "Dynamite" has reached a cumulative total of 900,950,000 streams. This marks the eighth song in Oricon history to exceed 900 million streams and the first by a foreign artist.

Additionally, "Permission to Dance" has also surpassed 500 million streams on the same chart. This achievement makes BTS the only foreign artist to have three songs with over 500 million streams on Oricon, following "Dynamite" and "Butter."

BTS's success continues on the Billboard charts as well. In the latest Billboard chart released on June 9, "SWIM" rose three spots to 41 on the Hot 100. The song debuted at 55 on the May 30 chart and rebounded to 44 on the June 6 chart before climbing again this week.

The global chart performance remains strong, with "SWIM" reaching fifth on the Global 200 and second on the Global (excluding the U.S.) chart. Notably, all 13 tracks from the "ARIRANG" album have remained on the Global (excluding the U.S.) chart for 11 consecutive weeks.

BTS will hold their "BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' IN BUSAN" at the Busan Asiad Main Stadium on June 12-13. The second day, June 13, marks the 13th anniversary of BTS's debut, coinciding with the celebration of the "2026 BTS FESTA."
