Jin of BTS has reached a new milestone as a solo artist in Europe. On Billboard’s August 2025 Top Tours chart, he ranked No. 24 with just four shows—August 5–6 in London and August 9–10 in Amsterdam—marking his second consecutive month on the chart. The run drew 50,700 fans and grossed approximately USD 11.5 million (KRW 15.5 billion), setting the record for the highest European tour revenue by a Korean soloist and establishing a new Billboard Top Tours benchmark.
From June 28 to August 10, Jin embarked on his first solo world tour and fan concert series, #RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR, performing 18 shows across nine cities. The journey began in Korea, continued through Chiba and Osaka in Japan, Anaheim, Dallas, Tampa, and Newark in the U.S., and wrapped up in London and Amsterdam.
In July, Jin placed No. 9 on the Billboard Top Tours chart, achieving the highest-ever monthly gross (USD 32.5 million / KRW 43.9 billion) and attendance (217,000) for an Asian solo artist—with only 12 shows in Japan and the U.S., excluding Korea and Europe.
According to Billboard Top Boxscores, his July 12–13 performances at Osaka’s Kyocera Dome earned USD 9.6 million (KRW 13.0 billion) over two nights—setting a new single-venue record for a K-pop solo act. The concerts sold out every level up to the eighth tier, including limited-view seats.
On the charts, Jin holds the record for the most No. 1 songs (seven) by a soloist on Billboard World Digital Song Sales. His album Echo is the only 2025 K-pop solo release to spend over 18 weeks on Billboard World Albums. He also leads all K-pop soloists in the U.S. by pure album sales this year.
Critics worldwide have praised his performances. Rolling Stone gave the tour a five-star review, calling Jin “a singular entertainer.” Forbes commended his effortless upper-range control and vocal versatility, while Paris Match highlighted his humor, stage presence, and charisma as “the complete package for fans.”
Driven by overwhelming demand, Jin has announced RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR_ENCORE shows at Incheon Munhak Stadium on October 31 and November 1.
