Hwasa's 'Good Goodbye' Soars Globally, Dominating Charts in Viral Comeback

Hwasa's solo track 'Good Goodbye' is creating a global sensation, igniting a powerful reverse run on music charts both domestically and internationally.

According to the Billboard charts released on December 2nd (local time), 'Good Goodbye' impressively secured the 43rd position on the Billboard Global 200 chart. This marks a new record for the song, as it entered the global chart for the first time since its release on October 15th.

Furthermore, after initially debuting at 4th place, the song has re-entered the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart due to its surging popularity, achieving a career-high of 2nd place.

As of December 3rd, the upward trend continued on the iTunes Song Chart. 'Good Goodbye' claimed the number one spot in Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Kyrgyzstan. It also ranked second in Hong Kong and Indonesia, third in Thailand and Vietnam, and reached 14th in France and 27th in the United States, proving its widespread global appeal.

The momentum for this viral comeback was significantly boosted after Hwasa's captivating performance with actor Park Jung-min at the 46th Blue Dragon Film Awards on November 19th. Their emotionally charged stage performance, hailed as a 'legendary celebratory stage,' acted as a major catalyst for the song's renewed popularity.

Domestically, 'Good Goodbye' also dominated the charts. On November 22nd, 38 days after its release, the song simultaneously topped major Korean music charts including Melon Top 100, Hot 100, Bugs, and FLO, igniting its reverse run. Ultimately, Hwasa achieved a 'Perfect All-Kill (PAK)' on all six major Korean music charts – Melon, Genie, Bugs, YouTube Music, FLO, and VIBE – becoming the first solo female artist this year to do so, demonstrating a syndrome-level impact. The music video for 'Good Goodbye' is now nearing 55 million views.

Meanwhile, since signing an exclusive contract with P NATION last year, Hwasa has solidified her position as a unique solo artist, releasing consecutive hits like 'I Love My Body,' 'NA,' and 'Good Goodbye,' all infused with her distinct musical identity.

Korean netizens are reacting enthusiastically, with comments like 'Hwasa is truly Hwasa!', 'As expected, Hwasa is reliable!', 'I immediately searched for the song after seeing the Blue Dragon performance,' and 'The return of a world-class solo queen.'
