The stars of \u201cK-Pop Demon Hunters\u201d are making history!<\/p>\n
Huntrix, the girl group trio of EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, are still processing their 2026 Grammy nominations, including a nod for Song of the Year with their breakout hit \u201cGolden.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked how the singers felt about the honor, Audrey Nuna admitted the moment hadn\u2019t fully sunk in.<\/p>\n
\u201cI got chills in my body,\u201d she told our entertainment reporter Courtney Tezeno on Nov.7. \u201cI’m known in this group to be emotionally the most constipated, and it takes me very long to process things, but I will say my body was healing things, although I didn’t cry just yet. But it’s surreal…very, very grateful and very humbled.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rei Ami recalled that the group learned of the nominations together over Zoom. \u201cAfter the first one, we all screamed, and then I started crying, and then I immediately blacked out,\u201d she said with a laugh. \u201cThat happened like three more times, lots of screaming, tears and processing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, EJAE was still in disbelief. \u201cYeah, like, not. I’m in shock. I can’t feel it right now, not fully, at least,\u201d she admitted.<\/p>\n
Their nominated track \u201cGolden,\u201d featured in the animated Netflix film \u201cK-Pop Demon Hunters,\u201d has become a global anthem.<\/p>\n
EJAE explained why she thinks it resonates with audiences internationally, saying,\u201cRegardless of whether it be Korean or K-pop or anything, the message is what everybody really related to. It brought light to a lot of people and children, you know, and adults — everyone. And I think that’s why it was very comforting for them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rei added, \u201cIt\u2019s just a hopeful messageat the core, it\u2019s about hope and accepting yourself. Yes, it\u2019s a K-pop song, but in my opinion, it is just a solid, brilliant pop song.\u201d<\/p>\n
The trio will perform next at the Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade, another major milestone in what has been an exciting year for the group. \u201cEverything is happening so fast,\u201d said Audrey. \u201cWe\u2019re just trying to be as present as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n
