BTS's Jin, Who Captivated Japan Too, Wins Music Awards Japan Listeners' Choice
At the Music Awards Japan, a major Japanese music awards ceremony, Jin had the honor of winning the 'Best of Listeners' Choice: Overseas Song' award for "Don't Say You Love Me," the title track of his second solo mini-album. In this awards ceremony, which reflected Spotify voting results, Jin once again proved his solid musical influence in Japan. This solo song set a remarkable record, becoming the first by an Asian artist to reach number one on the Spotify Global Chart in 2025 and remaining at the top of the Japanese Spotify chart for 80 days. He was the only K-pop solo artist to be listed on the Billboard Japan 'Hot 100' chart for the first half of 2026, and he simultaneously dominated the local digital and physical album markets by breaking all-time records for K-pop solo artists on the annual album sales charts of Oricon and Billboard Japan. "Don't Say You Love Me" is a masterpiece even now, but I didn't know it stayed at number one on Japanese Spotify for 80 days. His impact as a solo artist in Japan is truly unrivaled."
