K-pop Demon Hunters’ “Golden” Tops Billboard Hot 100 for Third Consecutive Week

The Netflix animation K-pop Demon Hunters OST track “Golden” has secured the No.1 spot on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 main singles chart for the third week in a row.

Following Stray Kids’ album KARMA reaching No.1 on the Billboard 200, this marks the first time in about five years since BTS’s BE and “Life Goes On” that K-pop has simultaneously dominated both the singles and albums charts.

During the latest tracking week, “Golden” racked up 35.3 million streams (+4%), 19.7 million radio airplay impressions (+21%), and 9,000 sales (+11%), maintaining its explosive momentum. Its 10-week chart run shows a steady climb: 81 → 23 → 6 → 4 → 2 → 2 → 1 → 2 → 1 → 1. This achievement makes “Golden” the third K-pop song to hold No.1 on the Hot 100 for at least three weeks, following BTS’s “Butter” (10 weeks) and “Dynamite” (3 weeks).

This week’s Hot 100 top 10 also features four tracks from the OST, with “Your Idol” at No.4, “Soda Pop” at No.5, and “How It’s Done” at No.9, further showcasing the soundtrack’s global dominance.
