BTS stayed in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10 for a fourth straight week, with “Swim” holding at No. 10 on the chart dated April 25. (billboard.com) The song is in its fourth week on the Hot 100 after debuting at No. 1 on the April 4 chart. It ranked No. 5 a week earlier before slipping five spots in the latest chart preview published April 21. (billboard.com) (yna.co.kr) “Swim” is the lead single from BTS’s fifth studio album, “Arirang,” which gave the group its first studio album of new material since 2020. Billboard said the No. 1 debut gave BTS its seventh Hot 100 leader. (billboard.com 1) (billboard.com 2) The Hot 100 blends U.S. streaming, radio airplay and sales into one weekly ranking. A fourth week in the top 10 means “Swim” is still drawing enough activity across those measures to stay ahead of most new releases. (billboard.com) (yna.co.kr) Billboard also reported that “Swim” spent a fourth week at No. 1 on Digital Song Sales. On the global side, the track logged a fourth straight week atop both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts. (fnnews.com) (billboard.com) That split shows where the song is strongest. The global charts measure worldwide consumption, while the Hot 100 is limited to the United States, so “Swim” is dominating internationally even as its U.S. rank has eased from its opening week peak. (billboard.com 1) (billboard.com 2) BIGHIT MUSIC amplified the April 21 chart update on social media as fans pushed the result across X and other platforms. Korean and international outlets quickly framed the fourth straight top-10 week as another sign of BTS’s sustained chart power after the group’s reunion-era return. (chosun.com) (koreaherald.com) The next test is whether “Swim” can turn a strong first month into a longer U.S. run. For now, the chart says BTS still has one of the 10 biggest songs in America four weeks after release. (billboard.com) (yna.co.kr)
