🐯 BTS Jungkook Earns Rare Praise from K-pop Demon Hunters Singer
In a recent interview with The Straits Times, singer-songwriter Andrew Choi couldn’t stop praising BTS’s Jungkook. The reason? Jungkook’s viral cover of Soda Pop, the upbeat theme song from Netflix’s global hit K-pop Demon Hunters.
“He sings so effortlessly. It may sound simple, but that’s the mark of a true vocalist,” Choi said.
“On a scale of 1 to 10? Jungkook is 11.”
Jungkook had previously sung a snippet of Soda Pop during a personal livestream, charming fans around the world. Not only did he perfectly deliver the vibe of the track, but he even spotted a lyric error — a fact that left Andrew Choi both impressed and grateful.
“No one caught that mistake until Jungkook did,” Choi laughed. “Thank you, Jungkook.”
🕶️ Behind the Voice: Who Is Andrew Choi?
Andrew Choi voiced Jinwoo, the main vocalist of the fictional boy group SajaBoys in K-pop Demon Hunters. While actor Ahn Hyo-seop gave life to Jinwoo’s character, Choi handled the vocals — and he wasn’t the only standout.
He also praised Ahn Hyo-seop’s performance of the track Free, saying:
“He’s so handsome, acts well, sings well… it’s almost unfair,”
“He’s a 10 out of 10 too. I was honestly surprised Sony Pictures didn’t let him sing more.”
🌍 Global Hype Continues for K-pop Demon Hunters
The Netflix original has broken records, drawing in over 130 million views and becoming the most-watched Korean animated film globally. Songs like Soda Pop and Free have become anthems, bolstered by K-pop icons like Jungkook showing their love.
Andrew Choi ended his interview by saying:
“I never expected this project to blow up. It’s been an honor to play even a small role in it.”
✨ Why This Matters to Fans
Jungkook’s talent is no secret, but being praised by the original artist of the song — especially in such a public, international platform — is a powerful nod to his vocal skill. As K-pop Demon Hunters continues to dominate, moments like these deepen the connection between fans, stars, and the creators behind the magic.
