The singer-songwriter, who trained to be a K-pop idol before transitioning to songwriting, is finally getting her much-deserved moment in the spotlight thanks to the success of the Netflix animated film and its soundtrack.

According to Billboard, "Golden" is the first IRL Hot 100 No. 1 by any act with a fictional background, following "We Don't Talk About Bruno" of the Disney animated film Encanto in 2022. Billboard said "Golden" is also the ninth song associated with K-pop to top the Hot 100, and the first by female lead vocalists.
