With Rosé and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” recently making a historic debut in the Hot 100 top 10, we’re taking a look at all the K-pop stars who have reached the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. We’re kicking off the list with a “stylish” artist who put Gangnam on the map with his viral hit “Gangnam Style.” Wop, wop, wop. PSY not only helped introduce the K-pop genre to the Western world, he also took the genre to new heights, becoming the first Korean artist to reach the Hot 100 top 10 with both “Gangnam Style” in 2012 and “Gentleman” in 2013. In 2018, BTS made history as the first Korean group to earn a spot in the Hot 100 top 10 with “Fake Love.” As a group, BTS has achieved incredible Billboard chart success, reaching the top 10 multiple times with songs like “Boy With Luv,” and grabbing the No.1 spot six times with songs such as “Butter,” “Permission to Dance” and “Dynamite.” “Like Dynamite, whoa.” “Dynamite,” the group’s first No. 1, helped them become the first all-South Korean act to earn the top spot on the chart. BTS members Jungkook and Jimin have also reached the top 10 with their solo songs.
