Secondly, the filmโs soundtrack is a declaration: K-pop does not need to be โblended inโ with mainstream Western pop to feel relevant or catchy. Where earlier works targeting global audiences might feature Korean artists in supporting roles or adapt their styles towards broader pop conventions, K-pop Demon Hunters(2025) flips the script. The music is crafted by top K-pop producers, sung by Korean artists, and delivered in unapologetically Korean idiomsโmusically and linguistically. Having topped charts globally, with the song "Golden" hitting #2 on Billboardโs Hot 100 on July 29, 2025 (even outpacing Frozen(2013)'s iconic "Let It Go"), the film demonstrates that the world is not just receptive to K-popโit is hungry for it. Iโve witnessed children, many of whom have no personal heritage tied to Korea, dancing and singing these songs. For them, this isnโt a distant or exotic nicheโitโs mainstream, the soundtrack of their childhood.
