KPop Demon Hunters: The Joy Ride You Never Knew You Needed!

Published on

 

 

It’s been a while since we all sang “Let It Go” from Frozen and in recent times, everyone’s been talking about Bruno despite the unspoken agreement made while watching Encanto, that “We Don’t Talk About Bruno”.

 

There’s a new sensation that gripping the world and you didn’t even know it. Your kids do and have been silently humming to the tunes of HUNTR/X and Saja Boys! Here’s the kicker, they’re all fictional bands!!

 

 

Angel recently watched the worldwide phenomenon, KPop Demon Hunters on Netflix which sent her down the the “rabbit hole” of everything KPop Demon Hunters.

 

Turns out, it’s the “national anthem” in households and on school runs now!

 

 

 

HUNTR/X CLAIMS THE THRONE ON GLOBAL CHARTS

Sorry Boomers! Pinky & The Brain’s plans for World domination needed that final touch – SONGS!

 

That’s been the key for the movie’s success – a catalog of tracks to stay top of mind but also keep everyone watching and singing wanting more!

 

1. HUNTR/X claimed the No.1 spot on the UK’s official Singles chart with “Golden”, the second Korean single to reach the peak in the UK since PSY’s Gangnam Style in 2012!

 

2. The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack has been moving after debuting at No.8 now is flaming at No.2 with the No.1 spot in sight!

 

 

 

3. Still not impressed? HUNTR/X’s hit “Golden” debuted at No.52 on the Billboard Global 200 and has been kicking ass and taking names, spending its 3rd week at the TOP of the Billboard Global 200!

 

4. Now that I have your attention, HUNTR/X are also the first girl group to rank NUMBER 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 since Destiny’s Child’s “Bootylicious” in 2001! A fictional band did all of this!

 

5. While you’re sitting down, have this tea with your cake! Saja Boys, also a fictional boyband who are the antagonists in the movie, had K-Pop kings BTS clutching their pearls with their song “Your Idol” stood ten toes at No.1 on US Spotify, making them the highest charting KPop boy band in history.

 

 

It doesn’t end their. The girls let the boys have their fun and then pulled the rug from under them to be #1 on the US Spotify Chart with “Golden” and become the highest charting K-Pop girl group in history!
