‘Golden’, from the Group Hunt/X, known by the Netflix ‘Kpop Demon Hunters’ movie, has reached the number 1 of Billboard Hot 100. When achieving it, it has destroyed Alex Warren’s song ‘Ordinary’, which had been in the coveted for 9 weeks not consecutive. In addition, as the phenomenon that is, it has broken three great records.
It is the first time in history that a K-Pop female group reaches the first position of Hot 100, although it seems a lie. The first group to get it was BTS in 2020, when it reached the top with ‘Dynamite’. Curiosity is that Gass/X is not even a real group, but one created exclusively for the film. Of course, with members of flesh and blood.
This also makes Gass/X the first group of girls with a number 1 from Destiny’s Child with ‘Bootylicium’ in 2001. Finally, ‘Golden’ is the second song of an animated film to reach number 1 during this decade. How could it be otherwise, the theme also occupies the number 1 of the Global Spotify Top 50.
The fictional group formed by Rumi (sung voice of EJAE), Mira (voice sung of Audrey Nuna) and Zoey (voice of Rei Ami) has not had the same success in Spain, where it occupies the number 45 of the list of singles. On the other hand, the ‘KPOP Hunters’ album is settled at number 10 on the Promusicae disc list.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yebnihkac4a
