The hit song from the Netflix animated film is the most successful K-pop song ever on the U.K. charts, and only the second No. 1 single following PSY’s “Gangnam Style.” “Golden” is credited to HUNTR/X, and is sung by EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami. The song is now in its fourth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Two further songs from the film also appear in the top 10, with Saja Boys’ “Soda Pop” and “Your Idol” both bumping two spots at No. 4 and No. 7, respectively.
