The breakout hit "Golden" from Netflix's animated film "Kpop Demon Hunters" has maintained its stranglehold on the UK Official Singles Chart Top 100, securing the number one position for an unprecedented fourth consecutive week. The track's continued dominance marks a significant milestone for Korean pop music on the British charts.

According to the latest chart rankings released on Friday, "Golden" has now held the top spot for four straight weeks since first climbing to number one on August 1st. This remarkable achievement represents the longest-running number one hit by a K-pop song in the UK since Psy's global phenomenon "Gangnam Style" topped the charts in 2012, making it the first K-pop track to reach the summit in over 13 years.

The song is performed by the film's fictional girl group Huntr/x, featuring vocals from a talented trio of artists: Ejae, a composer who received training at the prestigious SM Entertainment; Korean American singer Audrey Nuna; and South Korean-born U.S. artist Rei Ami. Their collaboration has created a sound that resonates powerfully with both K-pop enthusiasts and mainstream audiences across the globe.

"Golden" has not limited its success to the UK market alone. Earlier this week, the track also claimed the coveted number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, demonstrating its truly international appeal and cross-cultural impact. This dual-chart success underscores the growing global influence of K-pop and Korean entertainment content.

The success of "Golden" has created a ripple effect for other tracks from the "Kpop Demon Hunters" soundtrack, with multiple songs securing high positions on the British charts. "Soda Pop" has climbed to fourth place, while "Your Idol" holds the sixth position, showcasing the soundtrack's overall strength. Additionally, "Takedown" has made its mark by reaching 27th place on the chart.

The animated film itself has become a cultural phenomenon, officially earning the distinction of Netflix's most-watched movie of all time. Since its release on June 20th, "Kpop Demon Hunters" has accumulated an astounding 236 million views worldwide, surpassing the previous record holder, the star-studded action-comedy "Red Notice," which had garnered 230.9 million views. This achievement highlights the growing appetite for Korean content and the successful fusion of K-pop culture with animated storytelling on global streaming platforms.
