I feel inexplicably proud to hear that SWIM was chosen as the representative song of summer.

It is great to hear the news that BTS's 'SWIM' has been selected as one of the best songs of this summer.

It is said that 'SWIM' ranked 2nd in the Global Excluding Us category and 6th in the Global 200 on Billboard's 2026 Global Song of the Summer.

I think this record is even more meaningful because it is the result of aggregating streaming and music sales data from over 200 regions worldwide.

It is also really amazing that it has consistently maintained good results since its release last March.

In particular, on the global chart excluding the US, it reportedly ranked first as many as eight times and held the top 5 for 23 consecutive weeks.

Hearing that it topped the Global 200 a total of four times and maintained a top 10 position for 19 consecutive weeks, you can really feel its consistent popularity.

I thought it was a song that suited summer particularly well, so I am even happier to hear that it has actually been recognized as one of the representative songs of this summer.

Seeing SWIM continue to set good records on the charts even as time passes, I think I will be listening to it more often.
