According to the Official Charts Company, Jimin's title track "Who" surged 59 spots to number 5 on the UK Official Singles Chart, marking the biggest jump in the chart this week. This is also the highest ranking for the song since it debuted at number 4 last August.
The song's success extended to other sub-charts, including number 8 on the Official Audio Streaming Chart and number 11 on the Official Singles Streaming Chart.

On Spotify, Jimin's "Who" maintained its strong performance, ranking at number 5 on the Weekly Top Songs Global chart for the 25th consecutive week. Other BTS members' solo tracks, including V and Park Hyo Shin's "Winter Ahead," Jin's "Running Wild," and Jungkook's "Seven (feat. Latto)," also ranked within the top 100.
