Describing the astonishing journey of Jungkook's refreshing solo music career, Billboard wrote,
“Jung Kook became the first member of BTS to top the Global 200 as a soloist – reigning with three songs in 2023: “Seven,” featuring Latto, for seven weeks beginning in July; “3D,” with Jack Harlow, for a week in October; and “Standing Next to You,” for a frame in November.”
Almost a week later, the list went viral on social media, as the fans of the Still With You singer found out about it. Fans could not keep calm and they expressed their excitement while heaping praise on the singer's achievement as he is the only K-pop soloist to do so.

“In June, BTS’ “Take Two” blasted in at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, becoming the superstars’ record-extending seventh leader on the list. BTS is also the only act to have sent a new song to No. 1 on the Global 200 each year since the chart originated in 2020. “
Fans pointed out that the group's maknae was listed twice on 23 Billboard Chart Feats for 2023, as a BTS member while also promoting as a solo act.
Currently, all the members of the septet are fulfilling their national duties at their designated bases. Jimin and Jungkook were the last members to get enlisted in the military on December 12, following V and RM on December 11.
