The fictional girl group, HUNTR/X, from the hit animated film KPop Demon Hunters, is living every idol’s dream right now! Since the movie dropped on June 20, 2025, their song “Golden” has become a global obsession, and on August 12, the track made history by scoring its 700 Perfect All-Kills. That achievement pushed HUNTRIX past real-life groups NewJeans and even BTS, who had achieved similar numbers before.

The group, made up of Rumi, Zoey, and Mira, might exist in an animated universe, but their music resonates in the real world. “Golden” has outperformed NewJeans’ “Ditto,” which had been holding the crown since 2022, and also beat BTS’ “Dynamite,” which collected 610 perfect All-Kills in the same year. In addition, the track has also become a global success, sitting at No. 1 on Global Spotify for multiple weeks.
For anyone new to the term, a PAK or Perfect All-Kill means a track sits at No. 1 across every major Korean music chart simultaneously, including Melon, Genie, YouTube Music, FLO, VIBE, and Bugs. With fans’ support, “Golden” is expected to keep climbing and may even cross the 700 mark soon. The hype around the rumored live-action and sequels of the film is only adding hype! At this rate, HUNTR/X isn’t just slaying demons; they’re slaying the entire K-pop industry.
