Special Feature: How a K-Pop took over the Billboard Charts

"Psycho" was an instant K-Pop hit when it came out in 2019. The Red Velvet song debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales chart, and the music video now has over 300 million views on Youtube. In this bonus episode, we look at the creation of "Psycho" and hear from two of the songwriters behind the song -- and we learn about a little-known incident that erupted just days before the song's release.
