Seoul, South Korea – BTS, the global sensation, has reached another significant milestone. Their hit single, "Dynamite," has surpassed 2 billion streams on Spotify, the world's largest audio streaming platform.

Released in 2020, "Dynamite" quickly became a global phenomenon, topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart and earning a Grammy nomination. The upbeat disco-pop track, characterized by its catchy rhythm and energetic performance, resonated with fans worldwide and solidified BTS's position as one of the biggest music acts of the generation.
