‘K-DAEMON HUNTERS’ OST Summons 4 Songs into Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 – Golden Rules Again!

Move over demons, K-pop is exorcising the charts!

The OST for the hit Netflix anime K-Pop Demon Hunters just pulled off a chart miracle that even a shaman would envy: four songs from the soundtrack have crashed the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10, with one of them, “Golden,” sitting proudly at No.1 — again.

Yes, “Golden” has now claimed the throne for a non-consecutive 4th week, outlasting BTS’s “Dynamite” (which reigned for 3) and only bowing to the mighty “Butter” (10 weeks of K-pop supremacy). Clearly, this song is dipped in something more powerful than just gold — maybe holy water and glitter?

Also making devilishly good debuts:

“Your Idol” at No. 5
“Soda Pop” at No. 6
“How It’s Done” at No. 9

It’s the first time in Billboard history that an OST — yes, an anime OST — has gotten four tracks into the Top 10 at once. Somewhere out there, a Grammy voter just fainted.

But wait, there’s more.

Other bangers from the same soundtrack haunting the Hot 100:

“What It Sounds Like” – No. 22
“Takedown” – No. 29
“Free” – No. 32
A second version of “Takedown” (yes, they really went there) featuring TWICE members Jeongyeon, Jihyo, and Chaeyoung – No. 58

That’s eight songs from one OST charting in a single week. Whoever curated this soundtrack deserves a raise and possibly a Nobel Prize in Pop.

Meanwhile in the same chart kingdom:

TWICE’s “Strategy” sneak-attacked its way to No. 59
Girl group Cat’s Eye landed two hits: “Gabriela” (No. 64) and “Gnarly” (No. 100). Truly clawing their way up!
BLACKPINK’s “Jump” (or “뛰어”) bounced in at No. 86

And on the Billboard 200 Albums chart, the K-Pop Demon Hunters OST album is holding strong at No. 2, marking its 11th week in the Top 200. Talk about staying power!

Former No. 1, Stray Kids’ “KARMA,” slid down a few steps to No. 4 — maybe it’s just karma?

Also charting:

Cat’s Eye’s “Beautiful Chaos” – No. 28 (Name checks out)
TWICE’s “THIS IS FOR” – No. 96 (Apparently, it is for the charts)

Moral of the story:
Never underestimate K-pop, demons, or the unholy power of a killer OST.
