    The soundtrack to the Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters becomes the highest debuting soundtrack of 2025 on the Billboard 200 chart, bowing at No. 8, while it also enters at No. 1 on the Soundtracks chart (both lists dated July 5).

    The last soundtrack to debut in the top 10 on the Billboard 200 was the Wicked film soundtrack on the Dec. 7, 2024-dated chart, at No. 2. The Wicked soundtrack went on to spend eight weeks in the top 10, with four of those on 2025-dated charts (in January). Until this week, Wicked was the only soundtrack to spend time in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 in 2025.

    On the Soundtracks chart, where KPop Demon Hunters enters at No. 1, the album is the first from a Netflix program to top the list in over two years — since Stranger Things: Soundtrack from the Netflix Series, Volume 4, re-entered atop the list dated Nov. 19, 2022, for its first week at No. 1.

    The KPop Demon Hunters film premiered on June 20 on Netflix alongside its soundtrack release that same day. In the tracking week ending June 22, KPop Demon Hunters debuted at No. 6 on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in United States chart.

    The Billboard 200 and Soundtracks charts rank, respectively, the most popular overall albums of the week, and soundtracks, in the United States, based on multimetric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new July 5, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on July 1.

    The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack earned 31,000 equivalent album units in the United States in the week ending June 26, according to Luminate. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 27,000 (equaling 37.48 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks — it debuts at No. 10 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 3,000 (it debuts at No. 18 on Top Album Sales; it was only available to purchase as a standard download album) and TEA units comprise 1,000.
