On the Billboard Digital Song Sales Chart, "Dynamite" already spent a total of 18 weeks. The song beat the record of "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber, which reigned supreme in the tally for a total of 17 weeks.
"Dynamite" was, previously, pronounced as the track with the most viewed YouTube video during its first 24 hours. It was, also, able to get the most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours by a K-pop group and the most viewed YouTube music video in 24 hours.

Just like last year, the free two-day concert would feature the past performances of the group, including some remarkable fan meetings.
The first part of the "Bang Bang Con 21" garnered more than 2.1 million viewers. The livestream video also garnered more than 1.8 million likes. The second part of the BTS virtual concert would be show on Sunday, April 18.
