'Golden' from 'KPop Demon Hunters' rises to No. 2 on Billboard Hot 100, tops global charts
SEOUL, July 29 (Yonhap) -- "Golden," a track from the animated U.S. film "KPop Demon Hunters," continued its chart climb this week, rising to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Sung by Huntr/x, a fictional girl group featured in the Netflix original movie, the song jumped two spots from last week's No. 4, Billboard said Monday in a preview of the upcoming chart.
The song debuted at No. 81 earlier this month and has steadily risen through No. 23, No. 6 and No. 4 before reaching its current position.
The Billboard Hot 100 ranks the most popular songs in the United States across all genres, based on streaming, radio airplay and sales data.
"Golden" also topped both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts this week.
Produced by Sony Pictures Animation, a U.S. film studio, the Netflix original film features the popular girl group Huntr/x, who protects the human world from evil spirits.
Elsewhere, K-pop girl group BLACKPINK's "Jump" placed second on the Global Excl. U.S. chart and third on the Global 200.
Another K-pop girl group TWICE's latest single "Strategy" debuted at No. 92 on the Hot 100, becoming the band's third single to enter the chart.
