In recent years, TikTok has experienced tremendous growth, transforming from an entertainment app for sharing short videos into one of the world's leading and most influential social media platforms. It has become a breeding ground for viral creativity, where new trends emerge every day.
BTS has also embraced this trend, with an official group account managed by BigHit Music, alongside four personal accounts belonging to j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, where they share content they create themselves with ARMY.
As one of the world's leading social media platforms, TikTok has naturally become a powerful indicator of celebrities' popularity and media reach, as well as the influence of major global brands. Recently, a ranking of cumulative views generated by global stars' hashtags on TikTok was released, attracting considerable attention from the media and the public.
Specifically, international music news account About Music compiled the data and shared a ranking of the most-viewed celebrity hashtags on the platform. Among them, #jungkook has surpαѕѕed 421 billion views, placing Jungkook fifth on the list of the most-viewed celebrity hashtags in TikTok history. Notably, among male artists, his hashtag ranks No. 1 in total views, surpαѕѕing many prominent names worldwide.
According to the same ranking, BTS claimed the No. 1 spot with a total of 1 trillion views. The following positions went to Lionel Messi with 770 billion views, Cristiano Ronaldo with 624 billion, and Taylor Swift with 448 billion.
The fierce competition among some of the world's biggest names, coupled with Jungkook's fifth-place ranking just behind two legendary athletes and global pop star Taylor Swift, highlights his exceptional reach. Meanwhile, BTS ranking No. 1 and Jungkook placing fifth individually demonstrate the group's powerful media presence, both collectively and through its members' solo activities.
The explosive number of views is believed to be the result of Jungkook's numerous global solo нιтs becoming popular soundtracks for short-form videos. His solo singles, including Seven and 3D, the title track of his debut solo album Standing Next to You, his collaboration with Charlie Puth on Left and Right, and Dreamers, the official soundtrack for the Qatar World Cup, have consistently been used by people worldwide as background music and for challenges, helping drive impressive growth in views.
According to the figures shared, Jungkook has accumulated 42 million posts on TikTok featuring his name. Six of his songs have reportedly been used as background music in at least 3 million posts each. These include Left and Right, Dreamers, Seven, Left and Right, 3D, and Still With You. Meanwhile, 10 of his songs have been used as background music in more than 1 million posts, including Left and Right, Dreamers, Seven, Left and Right (Sped Up Ver.), 3D, Still With You, 3D (Sped Up Ver.), My You, Standing Next to You, and Yes or No.
Having already established himself as BTS's main vocalist with his powerful voice and captivating stage presence, Jungkook has continued to achieve global success since making his solo debut. His TikTok achievement once again demonstrates that his influence extends beyond traditional music charts and into short-form video platforms, where fans and users worldwide continue to introduce his music to new au∂ιєnces.
Fans couldn't help but celebrate Jungkook and BTS's latest achievement: "Congrats BTS AND JUNGKOOK", "BTS paved the way", "That's fact Jungkook himself bigger than Kpop", "Omg bts 1 trillion and my kookie 420 billion", "#BTSISBESTBAND OF ALL TIME and #JUNGKOOK IS BEST IDOL", "Jungkook standing strong among the biggest names in the world.
