Which award category did “Golden” win at the 68th Grammy Awards for KPop Demon Hunters?

The story behind the answer

“Golden” won Best Song Written for Visual Media at the 68th Grammy Awards. The song comes from KPop Demon Hunters and was performed by EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami as HUNTR/X.

This category recognizes songwriting connected to visual media, making it distinct from the broader Song of the Year and performance categories. The win was historically notable because it was described as the first Grammy win for a K-pop song. The song’s success extended beyond the Grammys into major film and music awards.

“Golden” also won Best Original Song at the Academy Awards, Critics’ Choice Awards, and Golden Globes according to the film’s accolades summary. Those awards belong to different organizations and categories, so they should not be treated as interchangeable. The Grammy answer is specifically the songwriting-for-visual-media category.
