BTS V (Kim Taehyung) has now become the Korean Soloist (as well as Asian Soloist) in the history with most #1s on the 'iTunes Top Song chart' (in 88 countries) breaking Psy's 8-year old major record. 

          In 2012, Psy's 'Gangnam Style' swept the worldwide 'iTunes Top Song Chart' and ranked #1 in 86 countries. The record remained stable and unbreakable for eight long years.

          This time, V snatched this spot with his self-composed OST 'Sweet Night' breaking Psy's massive 8 year old record in a span of just 2 months , announcing the new status as the 'Best K-pop Player' right now. In addition, it is  more meaningful because V made this record with an OST without a music video starring him, without a global promotion or any kind of promotion from his agency.
