Rose, 'KPop Demon Hunters' soundtrack nominated for BRIT Awards

SEOUL, Jan. 23 (Yonhap) -- K-pop girl group BLACKPINK's Rose and a song from the soundtrack of Netflix's animated sensation "KPop Demon Hunters" have been nominated for Britain's top music honors, the BRIT Awards, organizers have announced.

Rose's solo track "APT." and "Golden" from the "KPop Demon Hunters" soundtrack both got nods in the International Song of the Year category at the 46th annual ceremony.

The trio that performed "Golden" for the in-film girl group Huntr/x -- Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami -- also received a nomination for International Group of the Year.

South Korean acts have steadily gained recognition at the BRITs in recent years.

BTS earned nominations for International Group of the Year in 2021 and 2022, and BLACKPINK was nominated in 2023, but neither act took home a trophy. Last year, South Korean DJ Peggy Gou was nominated for International Song of the Year but did not win.

The 2026 awards ceremony is set for Feb. 28.
