Animated Hit ‘K-Pop: Demon Hunters’ Sets Spotify, Billboard Milestones

Animated girl-group adventure spurs chart-topping singles and an early Oscars campaign while fans await word on a sequel.

Netflix’s animated musical K-Pop: Demon Hunters is rewriting streaming and music-industry records less than three weeks after its 20 June debut, and the company has already entered its anthem “Golden” for Oscar and Grammy consideration.

The film’s fictional boy band, the Saja Boys, reached No. 2 on Spotify’s U.S. chart with “Your Idol,” edging past the 2020 peak of BTS’s “Dynamite,” while Huntr/x’s “Golden” tied Blackpink’s U.S. best at No. 3. Entertainment Weekly notes that both groups now rank alongside heavyweight pop acts on global playlists, fuelling viral fan art and dance challenges across social platforms.

The momentum extends to album metrics: the soundtrack opened at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 with 31 000 equivalent units, the strongest debut for any 2025 soundtrack and the highest for an animated release since Across the Spider-Verse in 2023. Spanish outlet Los40 adds that it simultaneously topped Billboard’s Top Soundtracks tally and cracked the iTunes top ten in 27 countries.

Directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans say the project’s fusion of K-pop choreography, Korean mythology, and concert-lighting aesthetics was built to resonate with international audiences yet remain authentic to Korean culture.

Kang told Forbes that partnering with producers Teddy Park and 24 ensured “each hook could stand on a real-world stage,” while Korean media praised the film for foregrounding language-blended lyrics without sacrificing accessibility.

Industry insiders suggest Netflix’s swift awards push follows internal data showing the soundtrack drives repeat viewings; co-director Appelhans confirmed plans to submit “Golden” in the Original Song categories as the streamer positions the picture as its marquee animated contender.

Analysts also point to the film’s chart climb as evidence that fictional acts can compete with established stars, echoing Daily Beast commentary that BTS and Blackpink now face “digital rivals born in a writers’ room.”

Speculation about franchise expansion is growing. Marie Claire reports no sequel has been green-lit, yet Netflix executives “see multiple paths” for spin-offs, while fan theories dissect unresolved plot threads and potential cross-media concerts.
