In a surprising twist, BTS' iconic song "Spring Day" has claimed the number-one spot on the U.S. iTunes charts, surpassing Mariah Carey's perennial holiday hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You." This extraordinary achievement comes six years after the song's initial release and coincides with the military enlistments of BTS members RM, V, Jimin, and Jungkook.

Traditionally, Mariah Carey's festive anthem dominated the charts in December, making BTS' feat all the more remarkable. The moment reflects the unwavering support of BTS' fandom, ARMY, during the group's upcoming military enlistment, creating a historic milestone in idol-fandom history.

"Spring Day," known for its exploration of themes such as love, loss, and longing, holds special significance for ARMYs as they navigate the emotional absence of BTS members during their military service. Fans collectively propelled the six-year-old song to the top of the charts, showcasing their deep emotional connection with the group.

Recognized as the "Queen" by ARMYs for its chart longevity during pivotal moments for the group, "Spring Day" achieved another milestone by charting for 350 consecutive weeks on the Melon Weekly Chart. Released on February 13, 2017, the song remains the longest-charting K-Pop track on the Melon Weekly Chart and stands as an iconic creation by BTS' esteemed duo, RM and SUGA.

As BTS embarks on their mandatory enlistment, "Spring Day" serves as a poignant reminder of the group's enduring impact and the profound connection between BTS and their dedicated fanbase.
