Global K-pop Top 10 This Week (As of May 9, 2026)<\/div>\n

The Global K-pop Ranking for the 18th week of the year, covering April 26 to May 2, 2026, saw BTS's "SWIM" claim the top spot. As this marks the inaugural chart under a new system, with no comparable prior period data, its significance lies in revealing the current top-performing tracks and artists rather than focusing on \uc21c\uc704 \ubcc0\ub3d9.<\/p>\n

Key Trends This Week<\/h2>\n

BTS's "SWIM" secured the \uc815\uc0c1 spot.<\/p>\n

The \uc0c1\uc704\uad8c were dominated by "SWIM" (BTS), "Golden" (HUNTR\/X, EJAE, AUDREY NUNA, REI AMI, KPop Demon Hunters Cast), and "2.0" (BTS).<\/p>\n

Given the absence of comparable data from previous weeks, this chart serves as a foundational \uae30\uc900\uc810, highlighting the artists and tracks currently occupying the top positions rather than indicating week-on-week \ubcc0\ub3d9.<\/p>\n

Among artists with multiple entries, BTS showed a strong \uc874\uc7ac\uac10 with six \uace1.<\/p>\n
