HUNTR/X Goes Viral With Their First Live Performance of ‘Golden’
The original singers behind Netflix’s ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ went viral for their first-ever full live performance of ‘Golden.’
On ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,’ EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, the singing voices behind Rumi, Mira, and Zoey, stunned viewers with their live debut of the chart-topping hit.
The night grew even more unforgettable when Fallon surprised the singers with a platinum plaque.
‘Golden,’ the breakout hit from the film, had just been certified double platinum by the ‘RIAA’ after selling one million copies in the U.S. alone, marking a defining moment for the soundtrack’s legacy.
It all began when Netflix and Sony Pictures teamed up to bring ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ to life, searching for artists who could bridge music, culture and fantasy. EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami delivered just that, creating ‘Golden,’ a powerful anthem about identity, courage, and embracing one’s true self.
Since its release, ‘Golden’ has become an unstoppable phenomenon. The song hit No. 1 on the ‘Billboard Hot 100’ and topped charts in over 20 countries.
It also made history as the second K-pop single ever to reach No. 1 in the U.K., following PSY’s iconic ‘Gangnam Style,’ cementing HUNTR/X’s global impact.
For EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, the journey from soundtrack artists to global chart-toppers proves that music, no matter the form, transcends boundaries.
HUNTR/X may have begun as a fictional band, but their rise is very real, a story of how imagination, identity, and artistry can merge to create something truly extraordinary.
