Following its nominations for best animated feature and original song "Golden," Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters secured both awards at the 98th Academy Awards on March 15, 2026. HUNTR/X’s “Golden,” performed by EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and REI AMI, won best original song presented by Lionel Richie—marking the first K-pop winner and first with more than four credited writers. The acceptance speech was cut short by the orchestra, drawing boos from the audience.

Rumors from Bloomberg indicate Netflix is mulling a live tour for the fictional K-pop demon hunters HUNTR/X from its blockbuster animated film, building on their recent Oscar-winning 'Golden' performance and ahead of the sequel announced March 12. Logistical hurdles from split management and trademarks could complicate execution.

The film, previously nominated alongside the song and following a K-pop girl group battling a rival demon boyband, also claimed Best Animated Feature—marking the first K-pop track to win in Academy history. Team members finished their remarks backstage.

The rendition, featuring fireworks, marked the first K-pop performance at the ceremony and was held in front of invited fans, including children due to the event's age restrictions. Huntr/x was nominated for international group and 'Golden' for international song, but did not win either category.
