Tame Impala's 'Dracula' featuring Jennie enters Billboard Top 10 for 16 consecutive weeks, setting a new K-pop record

The remix version of the song 'Dracula' by Australian musician Tame Impala, featuring BLACKPINK member Jennie, has written new history on the United States Billboard charts. According to the latest 'Billboard Hot 100' chart announced on the 15th (local time), the song recorded 6th place, the same as the previous week, achieving the feat of entering the Top 10 for 16 consecutive weeks. This is the longest period a song featuring a K-pop singer has remained in the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10, surpassing the 15-week record previously set by BTS's 'Butter'.

According to media reports, 'Dracula' was first released last October as a solo song by Tame Impala. Approximately four months later, on February 6 of this year, the remix version featuring Jennie was released, reversing the atmosphere of the song. Centered around short-form platforms such as TikTok, Jennie's featuring version went viral and began to gain popular popularity, which led to a steep rise in ranking on the Billboard chart.

After first entering the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 last May, the song rose to 5th place in July, recording the highest ranking since Jennie's debut as a solo artist. 'Dracula', which has been appearing on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 50 weeks so far, is continuing its long-term success by also breaking the 14-consecutive-week Top 10 record set by Rosé and Bruno Mars's 'APT.'.

Through this record, Jennie has added a meaningful achievement to her Billboard Hot 100 career. Jennie first entered the chart at 51st place with 'One Of The Girls', an OST for the 2023 HBO drama 'The Idol', during which she also showed her side as an actress appearing as the role of Dyanne, Jocelyn's friend and dancer in the drama. Since then, she has placed numerous songs on the charts, such as 'Mantra', 'Love Hangover', 'ExtraL', 'like JENNIE', and 'Handlebars'.

As 'Dracula', collaborated with Tame Impala, achieved a peak ranking of 5th and broke the longest Top 10 record, Jennie has once again proven her influence as a solo artist. The song, which gained momentum after Jennie's joining, is maintaining its position at the top of the charts even as it approaches one year since its release, raising the global status of K-pop.
