Netflix’s “KPop Demon Hunters” OST “Golden” Wins Grammys, Golden Globes, and Oscar Nominations

“Golden,” one of the original soundtracks for Netflix’s animated film “KPop Demon Hunters,” has secured Grammys and Golden Globes awards throughout 2026, while also receiving an Oscar nomination, demonstrating remarkable success in the global music industry.

Composer Mark Sennblatt stated in an interview with BBC that a sequel to “K-POP Demon Hunters” is “in process.” He added, “This song could have disappeared. The only reason it received these nominations is because fans responded and told others to watch the movie.”

“Golden” reached position 18 on the UK Official Singles Chart. After holding the number one spot for 10 non-consecutive weeks, it continues to remain in the “Top 100” for 33 consecutive weeks. Other tracks from the OST have also performed exceptionally well, with “What It Sounds Like” reaching position 30 and “Takedown” re-entering the chart at position 70. KATSEYE’s “Internet Girl,” the HYBE-USA joint venture girl group’s single, is currently at position 69 and has stayed on the singles chart for five consecutive weeks.

Building on the success of the OST, Mark Sennblatt is preparing a new musical titled “Midnight at the Never Get.” This musical is set to open at the Menier Chocolate Factory in London in July. Starring Ben Platt, it depicts the relationship between a singer and a composer set against the backdrop of illegal gay bars in 1960s New York.
