Zombie Daughter Surpasses 5 Million Viewers, Revives BOAs Classic Hit No.1
The film Zombie Daughter has emerged as a surprise hit this summer, surpassing 5 million viewers. Among those who have seen the movie, many reactions highlight the frequent appearance of the singer BoAs hit song No.1.
In the film, the middle school daughter, Sua (played by Choi Yu-ri), selects this song as her entry for a dance competition, a tune that her father Jeong-hwan (played by Jo Jung-seok) also knows well. Released 23 years ago in 2002, No.1 serves as a significant connection between father and daughter, evoking nostalgia among the audience and even leading to a resurgence on music charts.
On South Koreas largest music streaming site, Melon, comments flooded in, such as "I added it to my playlist right after watching Zombie Daughter", "It reminds me of the MP3s I listened to in elementary school", and "Old hits are indeed the best". Many viewers have expressed their appreciation for the positive function of music allowing them to revisit cherished memories, culminating in the song climbing into the top 400 on daily music charts.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of SM Entertainment, the first K-pop agency to reach this milestone, adding significance to this phenomenon. Founded in 1995 with an initial capital of 50 million won, SM introduced acts like H.O.T. and S.E.S., pioneering the Korean idol system and launching the K-pop wave with BoA at the forefront. Since then, they have continuously brought forward groups like TVXQ, Super Junior, Girls Generation, SHINee, f(x), EXO, Red Velvet, NCT, aespa, and more, leading the popularity of K-pop.
Among the four major entertainment companies in Korea (SM, HYBE, JYP Entertainment, and YG Entertainment), SM is often considered the most mature, and its philosophy stands out even more prominently in recent times.
