In a shocking turn at the American Music Awards (AMAs), the theme song 'Golden' from the Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters was crowned 'Song of the Year'.
Performed by Korean American artists EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and REI AMI, the track seized one of the night's highest honors at the ceremony held on the 25th (local time) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, drawing worldwide attention from music fans.
In a major upset, 'Golden' beat nine heavyweight contenders, including Taylor Swift's 'The Fate of Ophelia', to clinch the trophy and steal the spotlight.
Following the win, EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and REI AMI — all Korean American — are surging in global recognition thanks to 'Golden'.
