KPop Demon Hunters Soundtrack Earns Platinum Certificatio…, The worldwide phenomenon Demon Hunters in K-Pop just hit another milestone — the film’s original soundtrack has officially gone platinum, adding a major accolade to its already record-breaking run.
The powerhouse trio behind the hit soundtrack — EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, who voice Rumi, Mira, and Zoe in the animated blockbuster — were surprised live on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week when Fallon revealed their platinum plaques on-air. Their emotional reactions — a mix of shock, joy, and disbelief — instantly went viral.

But that wasn’t the only success story of the night. On Wednesday, October 8, not only did the Demon Hunters soundtrack achieve platinum status (marking over one million units sold in the U.S.), but several of its standout singles also earned individual certifications:
- “How It’s Done” and “What It Sounds Like” — both performed by the film’s fictional K-pop girl group Huntr/x
- “Soda Pop” and “Your Idol” — by the film’s rival boy group Saja Boys
The movie’s iconic theme track, Huntr/x’s “Golden”, was also confirmed double platinum, solidifying its status as one of the most successful K-pop songs ever created for an animated film.
A Storyline That Captured the World 🌏
The animated hit follows Huntr/x, a fictional all-girl K-pop group secretly living double lives as demon hunters. By day, they dominate music charts; by night, they battle supernatural forces using the power of music.
The mix of fantasy, fierce choreography, and emotional storytelling captivated fans globally — breaking streaming records, inspiring fan art, and turning its soundtrack into a full-blown cultural moment.
“Golden” topped charts across Asia, Europe, and North America, while even the fictional Saja Boys became real-world fan favorites — breaking into U.S. Spotify’s Top 10 K-pop acts, despite not existing outside the film.
Behind the Music 🎧
EJAE, who co-wrote several of the movie’s songs, revealed that “Golden” came to her in the most unexpected way — on her way to a dentist appointment.
“I suddenly heard this melody in my head,” she said. “It was so beautiful that I pulled out my phone right there and recorded a quick voice note before I forgot it.”
That spontaneous moment of creativity went on to define the heart of Demon Hunters — a story about courage, identity, and the unbreakable power of music.
