As of Thursday, the video continues to trend in the no. 4 spot for music in the Philippines.

Meanwhile, the hashtag #SuperTuna has garnered a whopping 103 million views on TikTok as of writing.

The hashtag #SuperTunaChallenge meanwhile currently has 33.2 million views.

During his birthday livestream, Jin, who has a love for fishing, said that he wrote the song for fun and that he was actually embarrassed by it. Most of the song lyrics were things he'd said while he was fishing.

However, due to the positive feedback of the people he'd shared it with, he decided to release the song on his birthday as a gift for his fans.

Shortly after its release, the singer must have seen that it was going viral because he posted on WeVerse saying, "No guys, don't do a Super Tuna challenge that I didn't even plan. No, I'm so embarrassed."

Sorry, Jin. It's a bop! —JCB, GMA News
