BTS continues to demonstrate its global chart power as the group secures another strong showing on the Billboard Hot 100. Their latest single SWIM landed at No. 10 in its fourth week on the chart, following an explosive debut at No. 1.

According to Billboard’s latest chart preview released Monday (U.S. time), “SWIM” dropped five spots from its previous No. 5 position. Despite the decline, the track’s continued presence in the top 10 underscores its sustained popularity in one of the world’s most competitive music markets.
“SWIM” serves as the lead single from BTS’s fifth studio album ARIRANG, a project that has further solidified the group’s dominance on both domestic and international charts. While its trajectory on the Hot 100 reflects the typical post-debut stabilization, the song’s overall performance remains highly impressive.
Beyond the U.S. singles chart, “SWIM” has proven to be a global powerhouse. The track previously spent four consecutive weeks at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. In addition, it topped the Digital Song Sales chart, highlighting its strong digital performance and widespread international appeal.

Elsewhere on this week’s Hot 100, Ella Langley maintained her grip on the top position with Choosin’ Texas, marking a second consecutive week at No. 1 and the song’s seventh overall week atop the chart. The track continues to resonate strongly with listeners, further cementing Langley’s rising status in the industry.

Meanwhile, Olivia Dean secured the No. 2 spot with Man I Need, followed by Bruno Mars at No. 3 with I Just Might. The top tier of the chart reflects a diverse mix of genres and artists, emphasizing the dynamic nature of today’s music landscape.

Another notable entry comes from the soundtrack of KPop Demon Hunters, as the song Golden held steady at No. 7 for an additional week. Its consistency highlights the growing influence of multimedia projects in shaping chart trends and listener preferences.

Despite increased competition and natural chart fluctuations, BTS’s performance with “SWIM” reinforces the group’s enduring global influence. From record-breaking debuts to sustained chart runs, the group continues to set benchmarks for K-pop acts in the international arena.
As “SWIM” moves into its fifth week on the Hot 100, industry watchers will be closely monitoring whether the track can maintain its top 10 position or extend its longevity further. Regardless of its next move, BTS has once again proven its ability to compete — and thrive — at the highest level of the global music industry.
