K-pop Demon Hunters Trio Behind HUNTR/X Hint They Might Be Working on Original Music Together

HUNTR/X Vocalists Tease Possibility of Original Music After Jingle Ball Slip

December 9, 2025 — Los Angeles

The phenomenon surrounding the animated sensation Kpop Demon Hunters has vaulted its performers into the mainstream, and the trio who sing as the fictional girl group HUNTR/X may be hinting at more than just soundtrack work.

During an unguarded moment on the Jingle Ball red carpet, EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI were asked whether they might record original music together. The exchange — captured in a clip that ran on the Druski-hosted 2025 No. 1s Livestream — sent fans into a frenzy when EJAE almost answered in the affirmative.

EJAE began to respond with what sounded like a full confirmation before pausing and smiling, leaving the moment deliberately ambiguous. When pressed, she softened the tease: they’d love to explore it and would never rule it out, praising her colleagues’ talents in the process.

Audrey Nuna quipped that studio time might be imminent — “Maybe tonight,” she joked — underscoring how spontaneous and friendly the conversation felt on the carpet.

The three vocalists were part of a stacked Jingle Ball lineup at the Intuit Dome, which featured stars such as The Kid LAROI, Conan Gray, Zara Larsson and Leon Thomas. Their profile has soared thanks to Kpop Demon Hunters: their rendition of “Golden” for the Netflix animated feature dominated charts, spending multiple weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning a spot among the year’s top global hits.

“It’s been surreal,” REI AMI told Billboard at Jingle Ball, reflecting on the cultural reach of the song and the gratitude the group feels for the reception. The year-end reveal of 2025’s top songs — presented during Billboard’s livestream hosted by Druski — cemented “Golden” as one of the era’s standout tracks.

Whether EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI will formally join forces on original material remains uncertain, but the red carpet moment offered an enticing glimpse: the chemistry is there, the appetite is mutual, and fans are eager for what could come next.
