‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Singers Set for Landmark First Concert at KIIS-FM’s Jingle Ball

The acclaimed vocalists behind the “KPop Demon Hunters” animated film, EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, are poised to make their inaugural live public concert appearance. The trio will perform as part of KIIS-FM’s annual Jingle Ball event this December, a significant moment for fans following their rising profile in the music and animation spheres.

Anticipated Debut at Intuit Dome

The announcement, made by KIIS-FM (102.7) owner iHeartRadio, confirms EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami will join the star-studded lineup for the Jingle Ball concert. This highly anticipated event is scheduled for Friday, December 5, at 7:30 p.m. at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. Their performance adds a fresh dimension to an already impressive roster of artists.

The “KPop Demon Hunters” singers will share the stage with a diverse array of talent. The previously announced lineup includes artists such as Alex Warren, Audrey Hobert, Conan Gray, Feid, Jackson Wang, Jessie Murph, The Kid Laroi, Leon Thomas, Renee Rapp, and Zara Larsson. This combination of established and emerging artists promises a dynamic and engaging show for attendees.

From Screen Voices to Live Performances

This Jingle Ball appearance marks the latest step in an ongoing media tour for the voices behind the animated hit. EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami recently delivered their first full live performance, showcasing the movie’s popular song “Golden” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”. Prior to this, on October 4, the group made a surprise appearance on “Saturday Night Live” alongside host and musical guest Bad Bunny, where they performed an abbreviated rendition of “Golden”.

In “KPop Demon Hunters,” EJAE lends her voice to the character of Rumi (portrayed by Arden Cho), Audrey Nuna voices Mira (May Hong), and Rei Ami embodies Zoey (Ji-young Yoo). The animated film, which premiered on June 20, quickly garnered immense popularity, becoming the streamer’s most-watched movie of all time by late August. Directed by Chris Appelhans and Maggie Kang, the film intricately weaves the narrative of a K-pop supergroup navigating their dual lives as global music sensations and secret demon slayers.

The Phenomenal Success of ‘KPop Demon Hunters’

Beyond its cinematic achievement, the “KPop Demon Hunters” soundtrack has also experienced remarkable success. It spent multiple non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart. The standout track, “Golden,” proved to be a significant hit, maintaining the No. 1 position on the Hot 100 for eight weeks. This achievement positioned “Golden” as the second-longest-running No. 1 hit ever for an all-women group, underscoring the widespread appeal and critical acclaim of the film’s musical components.

The Wider Jingle Ball Tour and Its Charitable Impact

The 102.7 KIIS-FM’s Jingle Ball 2025 event in Los Angeles is a key stop on iHeartRadio’s national Jingle Ball Tour. This expansive tour brings the annual holiday concert series to major cities across the United States, including Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, and Miami. The tour not only offers entertainment but also contributes to a philanthropic cause.

In line with its tradition of giving back, this year’s Jingle Ball tour is supporting the Ryan Seacrest Foundation. A portion of each ticket sold, specifically $1, will be donated to the non-profit organization. The Ryan Seacrest Foundation is dedicated to assisting pediatric patients through initiatives focused on entertainment and education, enhancing their hospital experiences.

Conclusion

The upcoming performance by EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami at KIIS-FM’s Jingle Ball represents a significant milestone in their burgeoning careers, transitioning their celebrated vocal talents from the animated screen to a prominent live concert stage. As the voices behind a record-breaking film and soundtrack, their debut is set to be a highlight of the Jingle Ball festivities, further cementing the cultural impact of “KPop Demon Hunters” and its musical legacy.
