💥 ‘YOUR IDOL’ & ‘SODA POP’ Join the Attack

The fierce energy doesn’t stop there.

Lion Boyz — the film’s fictional male idol group — also continues their rise. Their track “YOUR IDOL” has soared 9 spots this week, landing at #14 after four consecutive weeks on the chart.

Even more impressively, Lion Boyz’s latest OST single “SODA POP” has debuted at #17, bringing the total number of active K-Pop Demon Hunters tracks on the UK chart to three this week alone.

Sadly, HUNTRIX’s other OST, “How It’s Done,” slipped out of the rankings — but the overall presence of the animation’s music remains unshakable.
