EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI lit up the BAFTAs stage on Sunday night with a performance of ‘Golden’ – watch below.
The trio are the voices of HUNTR/X, the fictional band from the Netflix smash hit KPop Demon Hunters, and on Sunday night (February 22), they played the signature song from the film during the BAFTA Film Awards ceremony.
EJAE (the singing voice of Rumi), Audrey Nuna (Mira), and REI AMI (Zoey) played together for the first time outside of the United States, with an elaborate stage show that involved several dancers inspired by the aesthetic of the film.
Watch their flamboyant performance here, introduced by BAFTAs host Alan Cumming:
KPop Demon Hunters was one of the biggest hits of 2025, becoming the most watched film in Netflix history. However, the film was not eligible for the BAFTA Awards due to regulations surrounding cinema releases.
The trio are also set to perform at next weekend’s BRIT Awards, where they will become the first K-pop artists ever to take to that stage.
‘Golden’ also took home the Best Song prize at the Golden Globes last month, and won the Grammy for Best Song Written For Visual Media. It is also nominated for an Oscar for Best Song this year.
‘Golden’ was named as the second best song of 2025 by NME, while KPop Demon Hunters was also included in the films of 2025 list. The sequel to the film, however, will reportedly not be released until at least 2030.
At the BAFTAs, Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another was the big winner, taking home six prizes, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Supporting Actor. Another major winner was British indie drama I Swear, which caused a shock by winning Best Actor for its lead, Robert Aramayo, who also won the Rising Star award.
