SEOUL, July 5 (AJP) - A track from “KPop Demon Hunters,” a new Netflix animated film inspired by the K-pop industry, has topped the American music charts.
 

Global streaming platform Spotify said Friday that “Your Idol,” performed by the film’s fictional boy band Saja Boys, ranked No. 1 on its daily top songs chart in the United States. It is the fourth K-pop track to top the chart, following Jungkook’s “Seven,” Jimin’s “Who,” and BLACKPINK’s Rosé with “APT.”

 

Other songs from the soundtrack also placed high, with “Golden” and “How It’s Done” landing at No. 2 and No. 8, respectively, and “Soda Pop” coming in at No. 10.

 

The film follows Huntr/x, a fictional Korean girl group battling evil spirits while competing with the mysterious boy band Saja Boys.

 

The film’s album was produced by top hitmakers from The Black Label, including Teddy Park, Kush, and Vince — renowned K-pop producers known for crafting hits for globally popular groups like BIGBANG and BLACKPINK.
