BTS sensation Jungkook is setting records with his latest single, “Never Let Go,” even while enrolled in military service. The track debuted at number 97 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart shortly after making it onto the UK Official Singles Chart. “Never Let Go” marks Jungkook’s seventh track to chart on both lists, making him the only K-pop artist to achieve seven entries on either chart. The UK Official Charts are considered the equivalent of the US Billboard Charts.
Jungkook wrote and produced “Never Let Go” as part of the 2024 BTS FESTA, celebrating the boy band’s 11th anniversary. He created the song as a gift for his fans while serving in the military, noting it was an unplanned surprise for the BTS ARMY (the BTS fandom).
