Jennie's "Dracula" Hits New Adult Contemporary Milestone, Matching K-Pop Peers
Jennie's collaboration with Tame Impala has risen on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart, tying with several other K-pop hits and marking a historic achievement.
Jennie's joint effort with Tame Impala, "Dracula," has moved higher on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart, a metric that gauges radio play among adult-oriented pop stations in the United States. This ascent aligns the song with a select group of K-pop tracks that have previously occupied the same rank, establishing a joint historic benchmark for Korean pop artists on this specific chart. In addition to its progress on Adult Contemporary, the collaboration remains at the summit of several other Billboard listings, including rock, alternative, and dance categories.
The achievement joins other notable K-pop entries such as BTS's "Dynamite" and Blackpink members' solo projects, highlighting the growing crossover appeal of the genre. Industry observers note that while a few K-pop songs have reached higher positions, Jennie's placement represents the third-most successful showing for a K-pop-linked track on this chart. The continued strong radio performance underscores the song's broad resonance across diverse musical audiences.
