The BAFTAs will embrace the biggest animation phenomenon of the year after all.

EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami — better known as the singing voices for Rumi, Mira and Zoey from the band HUNTR/X in Netflix’s megahit “Kpop Demon Hunters” — are set to perform the film’s record-breaking anthem “Golden” at the BAFTA Film Awards ceremony on Feb. 22.

“Performing at the EE BAFTA Film Awards is a golden moment that our younger selves could never have imagined!,” said EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami. “We’re so proud to represent Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters and spread the film’s positive message to fans around the globe.”

News of the performance, which will mark the trio’s first ever live show outside the U.S., comes after “KPop Demon Hunters” was ruled ineligible to compete for a BAFTA film award having failing the theatrical release requirement.

Release in June 2025, “Kpop Demon Hunters” has become Netflix’s most popular film of all time, amassing more than 500 million streams. Meanwhile, its headline track “Golden” remains the top streamed song of 2026 so far (4 billion total streams and counting) and had a run of eight consecutive weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100. Of numerous records “Golden” has smashed it has became the first female K-Pop song to reach #1 on the chart and secured the longest #1 reign of the 21st century by a female group. Last weekend it became the first K-Pop song to win a Grammy when it took home the award for best song written for visual media.

“’KPop Demon Hunters’ has had a phenomenal impact on the hearts and minds of audiences of all ages around the world since its release last summer and so we are thrilled the talented singers behind HUNTR/X will bring their K-Pop energy to the EE BAFTA Film Awards next month,” said Emma Baehr, BAFTA’s executive director of awards & content. “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.”

The BAFTA ceremony will take place at London’s Royal Festival Hall, with Alan Cumming hosting. The awards will premiere on BBC as-live in the U.K, and on E! in the U.S.
