BTS’ “SWIM” is holding strong near the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for a second straight week.
According to a chart preview story posted on Billboard’s website on April 7 (local time), “SWIM” ranks at No. 2 on the April 11-dated Hot 100. The single led the April 4-dated chart at No. 1, then followed with another top-tier finish in week two, underscoring both its mainstream impact and buzz.
Its global footprint is just as striking. “SWIM” is No. 1 for a second week on the Global 200, Global Excl. U.S., and Digital Song Sales charts. On the Global 200 (tracking March 27?April 2), the track logged 106.3 million streams and 114,000 downloads. On Global Excl. U.S., it earned 91.7 million streams and 46,000 downloads.
Album cuts are surging, too. “Body to Body,” a track from “Arirang,” holds at No. 2 on both the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, while multiple songs are crowding the upper tier of Global Excl. U.S.: “Hooligan” (No. 5), “FYA” (No. 6), “NORMAL” (No. 7), and “2.0” (No. 8). With the title track leading the charge and B-sides rising in tandem, the album’s momentum continues to build.
The album metrics back it up. “Arirang” is No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for a second consecutive week, marking a first-ever achievement for a Korean act.
“SWIM” is also dominating on global platforms. On the YouTube Music weekly chart (March 27-April 2), it racked up about 52.6 million plays, securing No. 1 for a second week. It’s steady in major markets as well, hitting No. 3 on Germany’s official singles chart and No. 5 on the UK Official Singles Chart Top 100.
