K-pop superstar HwaSa has achieved a remarkable milestone, securing her first music show trophy for the chart-topping song “Good Goodbye.” The win came on the December 6, 2025 broadcast of MBC’s “Show! Music Core,” approximately two months after the song’s official release in October 2025, showcasing the track’s incredible staying power and resurgent popularity. This victory solidifies the success of HwaSa’s music since her move to P Nation.
The Unstoppable Rise of ‘Good Goodbye’
Initially released in October 2025, “Good Goodbye” experienced a phenomenal surge in popularity following a special performance. The turning point came when HwaSa performed the song alongside actor Park JungMin at the 46th Blue Dragon Film Awards. This collaboration captivated the nation, causing the song to climb back up the charts at an unprecedented rate. The renewed interest was so immense that it led to the track achieving a “Perfect All-Kill” (PAK), dominating all major domestic music charts simultaneously.
A Performance That Reignited a Hit Song
The collaboration between HwaSa and Park JungMin at the prestigious awards ceremony is credited as the primary catalyst for the song’s sleeper hit status. Their powerful and emotive performance created a viral moment, introducing “Good Goodbye” to a wider audience and sparking a nationwide trend. This event proved the immense influence of “Queen HwaSa” and her ability to command the stage, turning a great song into a cultural phenomenon long after its initial release.
Dominating Domestic and Global Charts
The success of this chart-topping song was not limited to its music show win. In the 48th week of 2025, “Good Goodbye” achieved a staggering 6-crown win on the Circle Chart, topping multiple major categories and demonstrating its widespread appeal. The track also made significant waves on the international stage, charting on several Billboard lists. It impressively peaked at #43 on the Billboard Global 200, #2 on the World Digital Song Sales chart, and secured the coveted #1 spot on the Billboard Korea Hot 100, proving HwaSa’s global reach.
HwaSa’s Continued Success as a K-pop Solo Star
This latest achievement is a significant part of HwaSa’s successful journey since signing an exclusive contract with P Nation, the agency headed by PSY, in June 2023. Under her new label, she has actively released a string of hits including “I Love My Body” and “NA.” The monumental success of “Good Goodbye” cements her position as a powerhouse artist, capable of dominating charts both domestically and internationally. This win further solidifies her status as a top-tier K-pop solo artist and adds another major trophy to her collection, much like those given at major awards ceremonies.
