The original soundtrack Golden of Netflix's global animated hit KPop Demon Hunters soared to the top of the UK Official Singles Chart, marking the first K-pop song to reach No. 1 in over a decade. Released as part of the animated film, Golden achieved the No. 1 position in its sixth week on the chart, rising three spots from the previous week. The track, performed by the fictional girl group Huntr/x, is a part of the movie's soundtrack, which features a K-pop girl group battling evil spirits to protect the human world. The UK Official Charts Company highlighted that this is the first K-pop No. 1 on the British chart since Psy's record-breaking Gangnam Style in 2012. In a statement published on the company's website, Martin Talbot, CEO of Official Charts, called the achievement 'another landmark moment for the globally dominating South Korean genre'. Golden has resonated with listeners for its catchy melody and impressive vocal performances. The track has garnered attention for its blend of K-pop and English lyrics, with some lines including Korean phrases like 'forever unbreakable'. It has been described as a summer hit, gaining traction alongside the success of the animated film. The song, composed by Ejae, a former SM Entertainment trainee, and performed by Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami, also includes production from renowned K-pop producers Teddy and 24 of The Black Label. The film's success has helped propel Golden to new heights, moving up steadily from No. 93 to No. 4 before claiming the top spot. In addition to its success in the UK, Golden has reached No. 1 on South Korea's Melon Top 100 chart and No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Top stories Swipe. Select. Stay informed.

Gossip mill: Seventeen's Mingyu in Singapore for event, Babymonster's Chiquita receives hate presumably over Thai nationality, Jeon Somi recounts long chat with ghost
PUBLISHED ON August 01, 2025 10:25 AM BY Drima Chakraborty Mingyu from K-pop group Seventeen is in Singapore today (Aug 1) for a private brand event. Yesterday, the 28-year-old posted on his Instagram Story: "See ya Gentle Monster in Singapore," tagging the eyewear brand, and later shared a photo of the Singapore Flyer. Today, Carats (fans of Seventeen) posted footage of Mingyu, dressed in a tight grey t-shirt and sporting a pair of glasses, at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, where the store is located. In one video, he can be seen waving to fans and then miming that he'll be going into the shop and will be back out again. 250801 gentle monster #민규 #mingyu "갔다 올게" sooo cuteeeee🥹 — 𝐜🍒 (@jjajanwonwoo) August 1, 2025 In another, he can be seen asking fans to go eat before he runs off for his work engagements. Some lucky fans saw Seventeen's Mingyu at the #GentleMonster store in Marina Bay Sands today. Watch how he interacted with everyone despite the distance 🩷#Mingyu #Seventeen #민규 #세븐틴 — AsiaOne (@asiaonecom) August 1, 2025 Babymonster's Chiquita receives hate presumably over Thai nationality [embed] Babymonster member Chiquita received a slew of hateful comments on her Weverse post yesterday. Despite only sharing photos of herself and one that said "Love yourself first" yesterday, the 16-year-old K-pop singer was met with hostile comments from anonymous accounts calling her a "wh*re" and a "slut". Fans were enraged at the negative sexual comments left about the minor, and some posted on X for others to leave nicer comments and report the hateful ones. [📢] IMPORTANT We want everyone to drop positive comments on Chiquita's recent Weverse post, there are so many hate comments also please report these types of comments!! 🔗: — PROTECT CHIQUITA (@protectcanny) July 29, 2025 The hate may have been over Chiquita being Thai, as there were some comments left about the recent border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia. Fans also noted that Chiquita has changed her profile picture to a cat winking with its tongue out, which hopefully meant that she was unbothered by the negativity. Chiquita changed her weverse profile pic to this cat after all those hate comments she really dgaf about those hate comments lmao 😭😭 — Nini (@ChiquitaYsl_) July 30, 2025 Jeon Somi recounts long chat with ghost [embed] Korean-Canadian singer Jeon Somi believes she can see the paranormal. In a YouTube video posted to her channel on July 27, the 24-year-old recounted her first time meeting a ghost. She was having difficulty sleeping and had heard someone crying, which made her irritated rather than scared. The noise was coming from her bathroom, and when Somi entered, she initially didn't spot anything there until she focused hard. Her vision shifted to show her an old-timey bathroom with a woman's figure squatting and crying inside. She reenacted how she had asked the woman questions at a rapid speed about how long she'd been there and why she was crying, noting: "Sorry, it's just that you're the first ghost in my life." Somi also said she'd hear the ghost's story out, and put on her charms after noticing she was good-looking. "I'm sorry unnie (older sister), but you look so pretty," she told her paranormal visitor. "You shouldn't be crying here now. Of course, fortunately I'm listening to your story and I'm giving my all to make you laugh, but don't go anywhere crying. "Your looks don't deserve to be tied up here. Please go anywhere you like and keep your smile." After the impromptu therapy session, Somi told the ghost she was going back to sleep and not to tell anyone, presumably other ghosts, about their encounter as Somi was only willing to listen to her this one time. She also gave her a heads-up that she would be "sanitising" her home with sage so the ghost could leave before she got hurt.

E-Junkies: J-pop group Psychic Fever talk global goals and new EP , Entertainment News
It's been over a year since Psychic Fever from Exile Tribe dropped their hit song Just Like Dat, and AsiaOne recently caught up with the Japanese boy band to find out how their journey has been since. The Just Like Dat music video, which premiered in January 2024, has amassed over 20 million views on YouTube and youngest member Weesa, 21, said they didn't expect the virality. "It made us happy to see it create buzz on social media platforms like TikTok. When we went overseas, we were really happy fans could sing along to our song," he added. The song was well-received internationally and on TikTok, netizens covered the song under the hashtag #JustLikeDatChallenge. @psyfe_official #JustLikeDatChallenge #JustLikeDat 🙌 #PSYCHICFEVER #99_9_Psychic_Radio #99_9MHz ♬ Just Like Dat feat. JP THE WAVY - PSYCHIC FEVER from EXILE TRIBE Formed in 2019, the seven-member group - consisting of Tsurugi, Ryoga Nakanishi, Ren Watanabe, Jimmy, Kokoro Kohatsu, Ryushin Handa and Weesa - had a few pre-debut releases before their official debut in July 2022 with the album P.C.F. Ryoga, 27, recalled how they spent six months training in Thailand right after their debut. "We faced many challenges there but it was a valuable experience for us. We learned a lot of things which helped us go global," he said. J-pop has been having a resurgence of sorts in recent years, and when asked how they felt being part of this new wave, Kokoro, who turns 25 in November, added how they debuted with the main goal of going global. Now that they have - the group has toured Asia, Europe and the US the past year - he said they hope to become a leading music group while preserving their individual styles. Their new EP [embed] The group recently released their EP Psychic File III, and while the title track Gelato is a catchy summer tune, it's only a peek at what Psychic Fever has to offer. "In this EP we have four songs and each one is in a different genre, so I think it can be enjoyed by people of all ages," said Ryushin, who turns 24 in Deccember. The song he recommends? Reflection. "It has our usual style but also a different way of expression. Please pay attention to the lyrics and choreography as well," he added. Meanwhile, Tsurugi's pick is Evolve. "When you listen to this track, you can really feel the energy we bring to our live shows. More than anything, it excites me everytime I hear it, so it's definitely one of my favourite songs," said the 28-year-old. Psychic Fever behind the cameras [embed] Having spent so much time touring the past year, we wanted to know what they've learnt about each other. The question though, was met with seven loading buttons. At one point, Ren, 25, seemed to be thinking up an answer and after a few minutes of the members waiting for his thoughts, he gave up and facepalmed. Ever-so-motherly Ryoga stepped up with a response: "We spent a lot of time together during our US tour and I got to see who wakes up the earliest and how a member eats their breakfast. "Through spending more time together, I was able to see how they motivate themselves for the live shows." When there's a mix of introverts and extroverts in the group, one person would usually take the lead and initiative. For Psychic Fever, that's 25-year-old Jimmy. "He's usually the one who does research about the places we want to go to," shared Ryoga. Who likes trying everyone else's food, and who cried watching anime?
