More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n In the animated musical fantasy film, Ejae, Nuna and Rei Ami sing for the roles of Rumi, Mira and Zoey, respectively. (Arden Cho, May Hong, and Ji-young Yoo voice the character\u2019s spoken lines.) The movie follows the K-pop sensation as they moonlight as the mystical destroyers of an invisible demon realm and are soon faced with their biggest battle yet when rival band, Saja Boys, turn out to be demons intent on stealing Huntr\/x fans.<\/p>\n During their interview with Fallon, the singers reflected on the phenomenon of the film and their recent appearance on Saturday Night Live<\/a>, calling the opportunity \u201cso insane.\u201d They also shared how amazing it\u2019s been to get emotional responses from both viewers and themselves.<\/p>\n \u201cThis movie has affected all us so much on an emotional level,\u201d Nuna told Fallon. \u201cI\u2019m emotionally constipated, so I take a very, very long time to process my emotions. But I guess I was due for a cry the day of the premiere because literally five minutes into the film I\u2019m, like, bawling my eyes out. And it\u2019s weird because the thing that got me was seeing kimbap, which is a Korean food, it\u2019s like a Korean rice roll, animated on screen.\u201d<\/p>\n Following its premiere, KPop Demon Hunters\u2019 skyrocketed to take the title of the Netflix\u2019s\u00a0most-watched animated film<\/a>\u00a0ever.

The album features a high energy score composed by Marcelo Zarvos and K-pop tracks produced by the likes of Teddy Park, Lindgren, Stephen Kirk, and Ian Eisendrath.<\/p>\n EJAE\u00a0and Mark Sonnenblick, two of the songwriters among the impressive roster of collaborators, spoke to Rolling Stone in August<\/a> about why the soundtrack has resonated with fans. \u201cI don\u2019t know if Mark knows this, but when I wrote \u2018Golden,\u2019 I was going through a hard time. I actually cried singing the demo, because it resonated with me so much,\u201d said EJAE, the singing voice of Rumi, who opened up about her own experience in the K-pop world. \u201cMaybe that\u2019s why \u2018Golden\u2019 is \u2018going up up up.\u2019 Because everyone\u2019s going through a hard time.\u00a0And they want to feel hope.\u201d<\/p>\n Earlier this summer, Netflix\u00a0confirmed\u00a0<\/a>plans to submit \u201cGolden\u201d for consideration in the Best Original Song category at the 98th Academy Awards.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
