On Monday (Sept. 29), The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon announced that EJAE, AUDREY NUNA and REI AMI — who provided the singing voices for Rumi, Mira and Zoey in the hit Netflix film — will take the Studio 6B stage on Oct. 7 for their first-ever live performance as a unit. According to a release, their song of choice will be “Golden,” which has spent six weeks so far at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The trio will also join Fallon on the couch for an interview. Jennifer Lopez is slated to guest as well on the Oct. 7 episode, which will air at 11:35 p.m. ET/PT.
The news comes about three months after Kpop Demon Hunters premiered on Netflix, quickly becoming a pop culture phenomenon. In addition to “Golden,” three songs from the film’s soundtrack — “How It’s Done,” “What It Sounds Like” and “Takedown” — have charted in the top 40 of the Hot 100. Kpop Demon Hunters is also the first soundtrack to top the U.S. albums chart since Encanto in 2022.
In a recent interview with Billboard, EJAE, AUDREY NUNA and REI AMI shared that they are still trying to process how successful their music for the film has become. The ladies also opened up about the possibility of a Kpop Demon Hunters sequel, which has not yet been announced despite how anxious fans are for it.
“The sequel has not been confirmed,” REI AMI said at the time. “We are, you know, looking forward, and we will know once we get that email.”
