Hi, Taehyung-ah ๐๐ How are you? Since it’s the weekend, I hope you’re resting properly so that you can be healthy and full of energy for the days ahead. You’ll be releasing your Blue trailers Tuesday this week, right? That’s so exciting. Your Layover will be officially released in about 2 weeks from now. We’re even more excited for that. I hope the days will move even faster so that we can hear your full album already. It’s surely going to be massive. Congratulations on having an impressive week for Love Me Again & Rainy Days, maintaining your top streaks on YouTube, breaking records on Spotify, and more.
Congratulations to your Love Me Again MV on spending 11 consecutive days at #1 on YouTube Videos Trending worldwide in the Music category, having not left the chart at #1 since its release. Congratulations to your Rainy Days MV too on maintaining its peak position at #2 for 6 days in a row. In the Global Top Songs tracking week, your Rainy Days ranked at #9 with 20.9M views while your Love Me Again ranked at #12 with 19.7M views. In the Global Top Music Videos chart tracking week, your Your Rainy Days ranked at #3 with 18.9M views while your Love Me Again ranked at #4 with 16.9M views.
Congratulations, Taehyung-ah, on being the first Korean soloist to simultaneously debut multiple songs in the Top 20 Spotify Weekly Global chart. There was only you and BTS as the Korean acts to have achieved this milestone, and it’s amazing how you did this with a pre-release album and surprise tracks. You’re totally amazing, Taehyung-ah.
Congratulations to your Rainy Days on being the #1 trending K-pop song on Amazon globally. Congratulations to your Love Me Again and Rainy Days, too, on being at #27 and #33 Best-sellers of 2023 on US Amazon.
Congratulations to your Love Me Again, too, on now having the biggest debut week for a solo song by a K-pop male soloist without any featured artist in 2023 on Spotify. Just like what one of your fans and armys said, it’s admirable how you did that with only one version, no collaboration, no promo, and being released 14 hours after its announcement.
Congratulations to your Love Me Again and Rainy Days on gaining 34M and 30M streams respectively on Spotify and becoming the 6th and 9th biggest debuts by a K-pop soloist on Spotify Global chart for filtered streams and the 2nd and 5th biggest debuts for unfiltered streams.
Congratulations, too, on being the only Korean soloist to have spent 600 consecutive days on Spotify South Korea daily chart with multiple songs as your Christmas Tree has recently reached this milestone alongside your Sweet Night.
Congratulations, too, on now being the 2nd most followed Korean soloist on Spotify, surpassing Namjoonie. You have now gained 14.6M followers on the platform. I wonder how your first official album will influence your records on all music platforms, be it in Spotify, YouTube, or even MelOn, and other international and national platforms. Congratulations, too, on being the most followed Korean soloist on Spotify for 10 consecutive days.
I remember how you’ve been the most followed Korean soloist for quite a long time after the release of your Christmas Tree, and how this song, as well as your Sweet Night, have continued to be the most streamed K-OSTs on the platform since their respective releases.
Congratulations, too, on gaining 6M monthly listeners on Spotify and now becoming the 7th K-pop soloist with the most monthly listeners on the platform, surpassing IU and PSY.
Congratulations to your Rainy Days and Love Me Again on debuting at #6 and #9 respectively on both the UK Official Singles Sales Chart and and the Official Singles Downloads Chart. Your Love Me Again also debuted at #41 on UK Official Independent Singles Chart while your Rainy Days debuted at #42. Congratulations to your Rainy Days, Taehyung-ah, on debuting at #52 on UK Video Streaming Chart.
Congratulations, too, on performing so well in New Zealand with your Love Me Again and Rainy Days debuting at #5 and #7 respectively on New Zealand Hot 40. It’s great that your songs have a great impact in the country with your Christmas Tree debuting at #6 and your Sweet Night at #34 in the chart.
Congratulations to your Love Me Again too on surpassing 1M streams on Pandora.
Your Layover album is performing so well, too. Congratulations on surpassing 116K pre-orders for all versions of the album on Ktown4u. Your album has also been sold out for the 4th time on Weverse shop and version 3 being sold out on BTS Store.
I wonder if the occassion of your album and singles being unlisted on Amazon also indicated its high volume of sales. It’s becoming reminiscent of how the Celine and Cartier luxury items you’ve worn on magazines, airport, or your IG or Weverse lives got sold out in their respective websites so quickly. It’s also reminding me of how the surge of traffic crashed these websites and then got your items worth over hundreds and thousands of dollars immediately sold out minutes after.
Are you excited, too, Taehyung-ah? I really hope all these platforms that are selling or accommodating your works would be able to keep up. Your W Korea set have long been sold out on Ktown4u too, all while the activities you’ve scheduled with the magazine are still yet to come. Your Fashion film with it will be shown today, while the other two, Eye Contact and Behind-the-Scene, will be released on the 23rd and 24th.
Although I feel very sorry for the pain you’re expressing in your debut album, and in the making of it, I feel very proud and happy for you, Taehyung-ah. Your deep soulful voice is really a killer. I always love listening to it again and again. When you look at the camera, too, you’re really bringing us to our knees.
I’m always reminded of that scene from Boy With Luv, with the lamp posts behind you and the members, and your stage performance with Singularity during your concerts, we’re all really under your spell when you look straight at us. I really wish to see them on your MVs, Taehyung-ah, and your Love Me Again makes me want to see it more. You also got us super satisfied with your boyfriend homebody vibe on Rainy Days, though I hope the song were happier.
I hope you’ll be happy from now on, Taehyung-ah, or more accurately, I wish you’ll have more happy days in the days, weeks, months, years, and decades ahead. I hope you’ll be able to get all the things that you want and that could make you both happy and proud. Keep the momentum and keep a positive outlook. Congratulations, once again. We’re all sooo happy and proud of you, our beloved Taehyung.
I love you so much, Taehyung-ah. I, and so many of your armys, love you so much. Always remember that. May we always be your friends to make you comfortable. May we be among your many sources of strength and vitality so that you can go beyond and be successful in any endeavor youโll take this year. Weโll support you through thick and thin.
Please take good care of yourself. Eat and sleep properly and keep a healthy lifestyle and optimistic mindset. May your days always be filled with happiness, graces, and blessings. May all your dreams come true and may you be happy, successful, and peaceful in 2023 ๐ผ๐. Borahae, Saranghae, Taehyung-ah ๐๐๐๐๐๐โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ.
