KPop Demon Hunters to Perform 'Golden' at BAFTA After Grammy Win

Fresh off a historic Grammys win, EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami—the voices behind Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters—are set to make their live debut at the BAFTA Film Awards. They’ll perform the movie’s headline track, 'Golden', marking their first appearance on a stage outside the United States. The moment is being billed as a cross-continental milestone for a project that has captured a global audience and inspired a wave of fans to engage with its music and characters.
The trio says the moment feels surreal and destined, calling it a 'golden moment' they could hardly have imagined. The BAFTAs air on Sunday, February 22, bringing the animated musical spectacle to Britain's biggest night in film and to a worldwide audience hungry for the next big moment in pop-culture crossover success.
KPop Demon Hunters has become a smash hit for Netflix, racking up more than 500 million streams since its October premiere and earning nominations for Best Animated Feature Film and Best Original Song. The film follows HUNTR/X members Rumi, Zoey and Mira as they secretly use upbeat music to keep humans safe from demons, a premise that blends catchy pop with a fantastical, high-energy adventure.
Songwriter Mark Sonnenblick described the response to the project as 'a testament to the hundreds of people who worked on this', emphasizing the collaborative effort behind its breakout success. For fans, the BAFTA performance will mark a new chapter in the cross-cultural surge of Korean pop in global cinema, as the music and film continue to expand their footprint beyond streaming and awards season footsteps.
