비영어권국 최초로 'EGOT' 성취한 대한민국

 

-아카데미상(Oscar 2020): 봉준호의 '기생충' 작품상 등 4관왕, K-시네마 자막의 장벽을 부수다

-에미상(Emmy 2022): 황동혁의 '오징어 게임'이 증명한 K-드라마와 K-게임의 저력

-토니상(Tony 2025): '메이비 해피엔딩' 작품상 등 6관왕으로 K-뮤지컬의 힘 공인

-그래미상(Grammy 2026): K-Pop "골든"(케데헌) 시각미디어 최우수 노래상 수상

 

 

2026 그래미상 시상식은 K팝이 미 음악계의 파워 뮤직으로 자리매김한 자리였다. 2월 1일 LA 크립토닷컴에서 열린 제 68회 그래미상 시상식은 K팝 걸그룹 블랙핑크의 멤버 로제와 브루노 마스의 "아파트(APT.)"로 시작됐다. 로제는 K팝 아티스트 최초로 그래미상 주요 부문 후보에 올랐다. '올해의 노래' '올해의 레코드' 그리고 '최우수 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스' 등 3개 부문에 오른 로제는 아쉽게도 트로피를 받아가지 못했다. 

 

 

 

그러나, '케이팝 데몬 헌터스(KPop Demon Huters)'의 "골든(Golden)"이 시각미디어 부문 최우수 노래상(best song written for visual media)을 수상했다. 이재, 박홍준, 곽중규, 이유한, 남희동, 서정훈, 마크 소넨블릭이 참가한 "골든"은 이외에도 최우수 올해의 노래, 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스, 리믹스상, 컴필레이션 사운드트랙 등 5개 부문 후보에 올랐다. "골든"은 지난 1월 골든글로브 최우수 주제가상(오리지널 송)을 받았으며, 2026 오스카상 같은 부문 후보에 올라 있다.

한편, 다국적 K팝 걸그룹 캣츠아이는 최우수 신인 아티스트 후보에 올랐으나, 자메이카계 영국인 여가수 올리비아 딘(Olivia Dean)에게 돌아갔다. 

 

그래미상은 아메리칸뮤직상, MTV비디오뮤직상, 빌보드상 등을 석권했던 K팝의 최후 장벽이었다. 이전엔 BTS가 콜드플레이와 "Music of the Spheres" 앨범에 참여해 '올해의 앨범상' 후보에 오른 바 있다. BTS는 이전에 최우수 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스 부문(3회) 등 5회 노미네이트됐지만, 수상으로 이어지지는 못했다.

뉴욕타임스에 따르면, 지난해 8월, 그래미상에 투표하는 미레코딩아카데미는 K팝에 상당한 공헌을 한 아티스트, 프로듀서, 작곡가를 비롯, 3천800여명을 신입회원으로 받아들였다. Supreme Boi, Wonderkid, Bumzu, Slow Rabbit, 허윤진, 정원, 연준, 지코, 우지, 버논 등이 새로 가입했다. 총 회원수는 1만2천여명에 이른다. 

 

이로써 로제와 헌트릭스팀이 그래미의 거대한 유리천장을 깼다. 비영어권 국가로서 한국의 문화는 K-시네마, K-드라마, K-뮤지컬, K-Pop까지 대중문화의 4대상을 석권한 것이다. 이제 그래미의 메인상인 '올해의 앨범, 레코드, 노래, 신인상'을 정복하는 일이 남았다.

KOREA: EGOT(에미-그래미-오스카-토니) 석권할까? 

 

로제·'케데헌'·캣츠아이: 그래미상 '빅4' 후보 지명

'메이비 해피엔딩'(뮤지컬)·한나 조(오페라) 앨범 

 

*KOREA: Toward the EGOT Grand Slam (Emmy–Grammy–Oscar–Tony) <English version>

 

 

K-팝, K-뮤지컬, K-클래식이 제68회 그래미상을 뒤흔들고 있다. 블랙핑크의 로제(Rosé), 넷플릭스 애니메이션 케이팝 데몬 헌터스(KPDH), 한국산 창작 뮤지컬 '메이비 해피엔딩(Maybe Happy Ending)', 그리고 바이올리니스트 한나 조(Hannah Cho)가 2026 그래미상에 노미네이트됐다. 특히 K-팝 아티스트들이 ‘앨범, 레코드, 노래, 신인상’ 등 그래미상 4대 본상(Big Four)에 이름을 올리며, 한류의 새로운 이정표를 세웠다.

 

 

 

로제, '아파트(APT.)'로 3개 부문 후보

 

블랙핑크의 로제는 브루노 마스(Bruno Mars)와의 듀엣곡 *‘아파트(APT.)’*로 '빅4' 중 '올해의 노래(Song of the Year)'와 '올해의 레코드(Record of the Year)', 그리고 ‘최우수 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스(Best Pop Duo/Group Performance)’ 등 3개 부문 후보에 올랐다. 이로써 로제는 그래미 '빅4'에 오른 최초의 K-팝 솔로 아티스트로 기록됐다. 로제는 올 9월 MTV 비디오뮤직어워즈에서도 '올해의 노래상'을 수상했다.

 

 

 

케이팝 데몬 헌터스 '골든(Golden)' 5개 부문 후보

 

매기 강(Maggie Kang) 감독의 애니메이션 '케이팝 데몬 헌터스(KPop Demon Hunters)'의 주제가 '골든(Golden)'은 로제의 '아파트'와 함께 '올해의 노래' 후보에 올랐다. 트리오 헌트릭스(Huntrix: 이재 Ejae, 오드리 누나 Audrey Nuna, 레이 아미 Rei Ami)는 '최우수 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스' 부문 후보에 지명됐다.

 

또한 '골든'은 ‘최우수 시각미디어용 노래(Best Song Written for Visual Media)’를 비롯, 사운드트랙 앨범이 '최우수 시각미디어 사운드트랙 모음집(Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media)'과 '최우수 리믹스 레코딩(Best Remixed Recording)'까지 총 5개 부문 후보에 이름을 올렸다.

 

 

 

캣츠아이, '신인상' 포함 2개 부문 노미네이트

 

하이브(HYBE)와 게펜(Geffen) 레코드가 합작한 6인조 걸그룹 캣츠아이(KATSEYE)는 '빅4' 중 '최우수 신인상(Best New Artist)'과 싱글 '가브리엘라(Gabriela)'로 '최우수 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스' 부문 후보에 올랐다. 이로써 이 부문 5팀 중 3팀(로제, 헌트릭스, 캣츠아이)이 K-팝 아티스트로 경쟁하게 됐다.

 

 

BTS, ‘팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스’ 3년 연속 후보

 

방탄소년단(BTS)은 '빅4' 본상에는 오르지 않았지만, '다이나마이트/ Dynamite'(2021), '버터/ Butter'(2022), '마이 유니버스/ My Universe'(2023)로 3년 연속 '최우수 팝 듀오/그룹 퍼포먼스' 부문에 노미네이트됐다. 또한 콜드플레이(Coldplay)의 ‘Music of the Spheres’ 앨범에 피처링으로 참여해 2023년 ‘올해의 앨범(Album of the Year)’ 후보에 올랐지만, 리드 아티스트로는 지명되지 않았다.

 

 

그래미 '빅4'와 K-팝 주류 돌파

 

그래미 최고 영예인 '올해의 앨범(Album of the Year)'은 아티스트(가수), 작곡가, 그리고 프로덕션 팀(프로듀서·엔지니어·믹서·마스터링 엔지니어 등)에게 공동으로 수여된다. '올해의 레코드(Record of the Year)'는 싱글곡의 퍼포먼스와 제작팀을, '올해의 노래(Song of the Year)'는 작사·작곡가를 대상으로 한다. 대부분의 시상식 무대에서는 가수가 대표로 상을 받지만, 수상 크레딧은 제작진에게도 돌아간다. 지난해 비욘세(Beyoncé)는 무려 35개의 그래미 트로피 중 마침내 '올해의 앨범상'을 수상하며 화제를 모았다.

 

 

한국 아티스트들이 그래미의 '빅4' 장벽을 돌파한 것은 K-팝의 문화적 영향력을 입증하는 사건이다. 미국의 주요 음악상들은 이미 K-팝 부문을 신설했다. MTV 비디오뮤직상은 2019년 'Best K-Pop'을, 아메리칸뮤직상(AMAs)은 2022년 'Favorite K-Pop Artist'를, 빌보드뮤직상(BBMAs)은 2023년부터 'Top Global K-Pop Artist', 'Top K-Pop Album', 'Top Global K-Pop Song', 'Top K-Pop Touring Artist' 등 4개 부문에서 시상해왔다.
 

그러나, 96개 부문에 걸쳐 시상하는 그래미상에서는 K-팝을 별도 장르로 분류하지 않는다. 그러기에 한국 아티스트들이 주류 팝 부문에 진입했다는 점에서 의미는 더욱 크다.

 

 

 

K-뮤지컬 '메이비 해피엔딩', 그래미 진출

 

올해 토니상 6관왕을 차지한 한국산 브로드웨이 뮤지컬 '메이비 해피엔딩(Maybe Happy Ending)'은 그래미상 '최우수 뮤지컬 시어터 앨범(Best Musical Theater Album)' 후보에 올랐다. 함께 후보로 오른 작품은 '부에나비스타 소셜클럽(Buena Vista Social Club)', '죽어야 사는 여자(Death Becomes Her)', '집시(Gypsy)', '저스트 인 타임(Just in Time)'이다.

 

윌 아론슨(Will Aronson)과 박천휴(Hue Park) 작가가 공동으로 대본과 작사를 맡고, 아론슨이 작곡한 이 작품은 2016년 서울 초연 이후, 2024년 11월 브로드웨이 벨라스코시어터에서 공식 개막했다. 두 헬퍼봇의 사랑과 존재의 의미를 그린 이 작품은 제78회 토니상 작품, 극본, 작곡, 연출, 남우주연, 무대디자인 등 6개 부문, 드라마데스크상에서도 6개 부문을 석권했다.

 

 

 

바이올리니스트 한나 조, 오페라 앨범 후보

 

클래식 부문에서는 비엔나 필하모닉의 바이올리니스트 한나 조(Hannah Cho, 조수진)가 참여한 앨범 '후앙 루오: 아메리칸 솔저(Huang Ruo: The American Soldier)'가 '최우수 오페라 레코딩(Best Opera Recording)' 부문 후보에 올랐다. 이 앨범은 중국계 후앙 루오(Huang Ruo) 작고, 아메리칸 컴포저스 오케스트라(American Composers Orchestra)와 극작가 데이비드 헨리 황(David Henry Hwang)이 제작하고, 캐롤린 콴(Carolyn Kuan)이 지휘했다. 한나 조 외에도 알렉스 드 소시오, 니나 요시다 넬슨, 브라이언 부, 아담 아베하우스, 실라스 브라운, 도론 셔처 등이 참여했다.

 

한나 조는 2024년 비엔나 필하모닉 오케스트라 사상 첫 한국계 바이올리니스트로 입단했다. 줄리아드 음악원과 맨해튼 음대를 졸업하고, 2019년 비엔나필 아카데미 과정을 거쳐 2022년 비엔나 국립오페라 오케스트라에 입단했다. 

 

그래미상 클래식 부문에서는 2021년 비올리스트 리처드 용재 오닐(Richard O’Neill), 2022년 바이올리니스트 제니퍼 고(Jennifer Koh)가 ‘최우수 클래식 기악 독주(Best Classical Instrumental Solo)’ 부문을 수상한 바 있다.

 

 

 

EGOT의 문턱, K-컬처의 힘

 

미국에서는 에미상(TV), 그래미상(음악), 오스카상(영화), 토니상(연극/뮤지컬)을 모두 석권한 아티스트를 EGOT 수상자라 부른다. 오드리 헵번, 라이자 미넬리, 바브라 스트라이샌드, 엘튼 존, 앤드루 로이드 웨버, 존 레전드 등이 대표적인 EGOT 수상자다.

 

2020년 봉준호 감독의 '기생충(Parasite)'이 오스카 4관왕을 차지한데 이어, 황동혁 감독의 넷플릭스 드라마 '오징어 게임(Squid Game)'이 2022년 에미상 연출상과 남우주연상을 수상했고, 2025년엔 뮤지컬 '메이비 해피엔딩'이 토니상 6개 부문을 석권했다. 이제 한인 아티스트가 그래미상을 수상한다면, 이는 개인의 성취를 넘어 K-컬처 강국으로서 한국이 비영어권 국가 중 최초의 EGOT 수상국이 되는 길을 여는 상징적 순간이 될 것이다.

 

K-팝과 한류의 새로운 역사가 쓰일 제68회 그래미상 시상식은 2026년 2월 1일 LA 크립토닷컴 아레나(Crypto.com Arena)에서 열린다.
