The K-pop idol doesn’t even have an account on the
platform but has become the first individual to cross the 30 billion viewership
on the viral app.
Jungkook broke the 15.6 billion views on his hashtag back in August, surpassing the Indian film star Salman Khan who happens to be the individual with the most views on the platform.

All of the BTS members racked up an impressive number of views on their individual hashtags, with all of them being over 11 billion each.
Although the hashtags might not provide content
directly from the band members, users have been really enjoying the
fan-generated clips around their favorite idols and including their past
performances.
BTS, as a band, does have an account on TikTok which
also accumulated an impressive 27.2 million followers on the platform
too. Considering that Jungkook only took six months to double the views on his
hashtag, there’s no doubt that there would be a lot more to come this year.

All BTS boys were in top 10 of the list. Based on
Google data, Jungkook took the number one spot, followed by V, Jimin in third
place, Suga on fourth spot, Jin came in at seventh place, while RM landed on
ninth place and J-Hope at 10th place on the list.

The group is no stranger to making and breaking
records in the music industry as well as in social media. BTS’s Map of the Soul
ON:E online concert also made a record on the highest searches of the year on
Google, landing on the fifth place for the most-searched concert globally.
Jungkook himself, on the other hand, also landed on
the top of the list for the most-searched K-pop idol for 2020.
