'SWIM' Moves to ~No. 22 on Billboard Hot 100 in Week 5 — Five Consecutive Weeks Charting

| BTS

In its fifth week on the Billboard Hot 100 (chart dated ~May 3, 2026), BTS's 'SWIM' falls from No. 10 to approximately No. 22, completing five consecutive weeks on the chart since its debut at No. 1 on the March 27 chart. The single tracks: No. 1 (debut, week 1) → No. 2 (week 2) → No. 5 (week 3) → No. 10 (week 4) → ~No. 22 (week 5). The drop-off pattern is consistent with BTS's prior singles in the streaming era, where physical sales peak drive chart position before radio airplay and streaming carry sustain. 'Body to Body' continues to chart on the Hot 100 alongside 'SWIM,' while 'ARIRANG' remains in the top 5 of the Billboard 200 in its seventh week. The ongoing ARIRANG World Tour continues to drive merchandise and album equivalent units that support sustained chart performance. 'SWIM' topped the Billboard Global 200 for four consecutive weeks — the longest run at No. 1 on that chart by a K-pop act — and set a Pop Radio Airplay record for a Korean act (peak No. 13). Combined, 'SWIM' has accumulated over 500 million global streams in its first five weeks, according to Spotify tracking data.
