BTS’s “Spring Day” Becomes The Most Successful Song In MelOn History

For quite some time now, BTS‘s iconic and emotional song “Spring Day” has remained in a tie with Busker Busker‘s “Cherry Blossom Ending” as the songs with the most unique listeners of all time on MelOn.

Both spring-themed tracks hovered at the 8.3 million unique listeners record, with neither one surpassing the other since the former came out on February 13, 2017, almost exactly seven years ago.
