The breakout hit "Golden" from Netflix's animated film "Kpop Demon Hunters" has maintained its dominant position atop the British Official Singles Chart Top 100 for an impressive fifth week overall. The track has now secured the number one spot for four consecutive weeks since first claiming the top position on August 1st.

The song, performed by the film's fictional K-pop girl group Huntr/x, features the vocal talents of three accomplished artists: Ejae, a composer who received training at the prestigious SM Entertainment; Korean American singer Audrey Nuna; and South Korean-born American artist Rei Ami. This collaboration has created a unique sound that has resonated with audiences across multiple countries.

"Golden" has achieved historic significance by becoming the first K-pop song to reach number one on the UK charts in 13 years. The last K-pop track to accomplish this feat was Psy's global phenomenon "Gangnam Style," which topped the British charts in 2012. The song's success extends beyond the UK, as it also claimed the top spot on the prestigious Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States earlier this week.

The soundtrack's success isn't limited to just one track. Several other songs from "Kpop Demon Hunters" have also performed exceptionally well on the British charts. "Soda Pop" secured the fifth position, while "Your Idol" claimed eighth place. Additionally, "Takedown" reached the 24th spot, demonstrating the overall strength and appeal of the film's musical offerings.

The animated film itself has become a cultural phenomenon, officially earning the title 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, surpassing the previous record holder, the action-comedy "Red Notice," which had garnered 230.9 million views according to Netflix's official statistics.
