HUNTR/X’s “Golden” Rules the UK: 10 Weeks at No. 1
The KPop Demon Hunters phenomenon shows no signs of slowing. “Golden,” the Grammy-nominated single by the animated film’s fictional girl group HUNTR/X, has secured its 10th week atop the UK Official Singles Chart—often viewed as Britain’s equivalent to the Billboard Hot 100.
Adding to its streak, the track recently set a new milestone for animated artists, surpassing a benchmark that stood since 1969 when The Archies’ “Sugar, Sugar” dominated the charts.
HUNTR/X’s grip on the UK extends beyond one smash: the soundtrack places three songs in the Top 15 this week, with “How It’s Done” landing at No. 11 and “What It Sounds Like” holding at No. 13.
A clean sweep for the film’s universe—and another headline-making win for K-culture’s global soft power.
