BLACKPINK's Rose has been nominated for the International Song of the Year category at the 2026 BRIT Awards with her solo track "APT.". The soundtrack song "Golden" from Netflix's animated hit "KPop Demon Hunters" also earned a nod in the same category, while the trio who performed it received a nomination for International Group of the Year.
On January 23, 2026, organizers announced the nominations for the 46th annual BRIT Awards. BLACKPINK's Rose earned a spot in the International Song of the Year category with her solo track "APT.". The song "Golden" from the soundtrack of Netflix's animated sensation "KPop Demon Hunters" also received a nomination in the same category. The track was performed by Ejae, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami as the in-film girl group Huntr/x, and the trio has been nominated for International Group of the Year.
South Korean acts have steadily gained recognition at the BRITs in recent years. BTS received nominations for International Group of the Year in 2021 and 2022, but neither won a trophy. BLACKPINK was nominated in 2023 without taking home an award. Last year, South Korean DJ Peggy Gou was nominated for International Song of the Year but did not win.
The 2026 awards ceremony is scheduled for February 28. These nominations highlight the growing international influence of K-pop.
