V's 'Christmas Tree' makes history surpassing Agust D's 'Daechwita' as the highest debut for a Korean soloist in the UK Official Singles Sales & Downloads Chart

Posted by YeontanNews130,836 pts Friday, December 31, 2021


Without an official solo debut or mixtape release, BTS's Kim Taehyung, aka V, has achieved a remarkable feat as a Korean soloist.

His new original soundtrack, 'Christmas Tree' for the Korean drama series 'Our Beloved Summer,' debuted at #2 on both the Official UK Singles Sales and Downloads Chart Top 100.

Despite releasing an unpromoted song, Taehyung set a new record as the highest-charting Korean soloist on those two charts. 

The previous record was held by Agust D's solo song 'Daechwita' from his 2020 mixtape D-2. 

With this, Taehyung is currently the only Korean soloist with two songs in the Top 10 in both charts, as his previous OST 'Sweet Night' debuted at #10. 

Congratulations Taehyung!
