The UK is officially vibing to K-pop; songs from KPop Demon Hunters, BLACKPINK, and TWICE prove it! For the week of August 28, 2025, to September 3, a record-breaking seven K-pop tracks landed in the top 40 of the Official Singles Chart. That’s no small achievement, considering the list is often dominated by Western acts.
At the top, “Golden” by fictional girl group HUNTR/X from the movie “KPop Demon Hunters” claimed the #1 spot for the fourth non-consecutive week. Alongside it, the fictional boy band Saja Boys placed two hits, “Soda Pop” and “Your Idol,” at #4 and #6. Meanwhile, TWICE contributed two tracks, with “Takedown” peaking at #27 and “Strategy” at #39, thanks to their inclusion in the same movie soundtrack.
But it’s not just about the movie songs. BLACKPINK’s “JUMP” continued its strong run at #29, while Stray Kids’ brand new single “CEREMONY” entered the charts at #37. This lineup shows UK listeners can’t stop pressing replay on their favorite platforms! Let’s check the full top 7:
