Jungkook, a member of the globally renowned group BTS, has dominated the U.S. Billboard 'Global 200' and 'Global Excluding U.S.' charts with his solo debut single "Seven", claiming the top spot for four consecutive weeks.
According to the latest charts released on the 15th (local time), "Seven" continues to hold its No.1 position from the previous week on both charts.
