The singing stars behind KPop Demon Hunters' biggest hit are set to perform at the BAFTAs later this month - their first live performance outside the US.
Ejae (Rumi), Audrey Nuna (Mira), and Rei Ami (Zoey), the singing voices behind the fictional band HUNTR/X, will perform the record-breaking hit Golden from the film's soundtrack, organisers have announced.
The song made history at the weekend as it became the first ever K-pop song to win a Grammy, following previous wins for best animated film and best original song at the Golden Globes in January.
However, despite its success at US awards ceremonies - including nominations for best animated film and best original song at the Oscars next month - the film was ineligible for awards at the BAFTAs as it was first released on Netflix and not in UK cinemas.
"Performing at the EE BAFTA Film Awards is a golden moment that our younger selves could never have imagined!," the singers said in a statement.
"We're so proud to represent Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters and spread the film's positive message to fans around the globe."
Within two months of its release in June, KPop Demon Hunters became Netflix's most watched film of all time, and has now had more than 500 million streams.
Golden, the headline track from the film's soundtrack, topped the Billboard chart in the US for eight consecutive weeks and the UK charts for 10 non-consecutive weeks, and made Spotify's top 10 of songs streamed globally in 2025.

Emma Baehr, BAFTA executive director of awards and content, said the film had had a "phenomenal impact on the hearts and minds of audiences of all ages around the world" and that she was "thrilled" to welcome the singers bringing "K-pop energy" to the ceremony.
"Not only are we here to celebrate exceptional films and the people who make them, we also want to create an unmissable night of entertainment, and we can't wait to roll out the EE BAFTA Film Awards red carpet for such an iconic trio," she said.
The singers were the voices behind the film's soundtrack but the spoken words were voiced by three different actresses, Arden Cho (Rumi), May Hong (Mira) and Ji-young Yoo (Zoey).
The BAFTAs ceremony will take place at London's Royal Festival Hall on Sunday 22 February, with stars including Timothee Chalamet, Jessie Buckley, Leonardo DiCaprio, Emma Stone, Michael B Jordan, Kate Hudson, Teyana Taylor and Paul Mescal in the running for awards.
