Stray Kids, RESCENE and HUNTR/X were among the biggest winners on the Circle Chart for the 32nd week of 2026.
The Korea Music Content Association announced that for the week of August 2nd through 8th, Stray Kids earned a triple crown, RESCENE took two No. 1 spots and HUNTR/X topped the Global K-pop Chart.
Stray Kids claimed three chart crowns with their new mini album THIS & THAT. The release debuted at No. 1 on the Album Chart with 3,124,490 copies sold and topped the Retail Album Chart with 255,500 copies sold at retail. Its title track, “This & That,” also reached No. 1 on the Download Chart.
Across all versions of THIS & THAT (CD+FANS+LP) appearing in the Album Chart’s Top 100, the album recorded combined sales of 3,475,460 copies. Its releases appearing in the Retail Album Chart’s Top 50 posted combined retail sales of 327,199 copies.
RESCENE earned a double crown with “LOVE ATTACK,” which topped both the Digital Chart, with a Circle Index score of 15,873,012, and the Streaming Chart. Originally released in 2024, the song has recently enjoyed a resurgence after gaining renewed attention through YouTube content, eventually climbing all the way to No. 1. The group’s new song “Pretty Girl” also landed at No. 6 on the Digital Chart, giving RESCENE two songs among the week’s biggest hits.
Meanwhile, HUNTR/X—EJAE, AUDREY NUNA, REI AMI and the KPop Demon Hunters cast—held onto the No. 1 spot on the Global K-pop Chart for a sixth consecutive week with “Golden.” The song, featured on the soundtrack to Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters, sparked a wave of covers from artists around the world after its release last June and grew into a global trend. “Golden” had previously spent 38 consecutive weeks atop the Global K-pop Chart.
BTS also remained No. 1 on Social Chart 3.0, which tracks K-pop’s global popularity, for a third consecutive week. KISS OF LIFE recorded the biggest jump in ranking on the week’s chart.
Several new releases also entered the Top 200 of the Global K-pop Chart, including Red Velvet’s “Surfin’ Boy” at No. 31, Stray Kids’ “This & That” at No. 32 and KISS OF LIFE’s “SWEAT” at No. 143.
