EJAE, the composer and singer of the K-pop Demon Hunters OST "Golden," will appear on You Quiz on the Block.
On the 9th, a tvN representative told OSEN that EJAE is scheduled to appear on the tvN variety show You Quiz on the Block (abbreviated You Quiz). A broadcast date has not yet been set.
EJAE is the composer and singer of the OST for the animated film K-pop Demon Hunters (abbreviated Kedehun), which recently sparked a global sensation, surpassed 300 million cumulative views on Netflix for the first time, and set the highest cumulative viewing record in history. In particular, he performed the vocals for Rumi, a member of the Huntix group and the main character in Kedehun.
Above all, the popularity of the OST "Golden" played a major role in the Kedehun phenomenon. As "Golden" reigns atop the U.S. Billboard main singles chart Hot 100 and enjoys widespread affection, EJAE, the song's composer and singer, will appear on You Quiz on the Block (abbreviated You Quiz).
EJAE's appearance on You Quiz was arranged to coincide with his visit to Korea. EJAE is scheduled to hold a press conference in Korea with domestic reporters on the 15th. He is expected to discuss in detail the Kedehun phenomenon, the popularity of "Golden," and other stories surrounding the work.
Notably, EJAE is the granddaughter of actor Shin Young-kyun and was reportedly a trainee under SM Entertainment who trained for about 10 years to debut as an idol. After his idol debut in Korea fell through, EJAE worked as a composer and then debuted with the Kedehun OST, making his story even more compelling.
Also, Maggie Kang, who co-directed Kedehun, previously visited Korea, appeared on You Quiz, held a press conference and attended the 30th Busan International Film Festival, carrying out her Korea schedule. His and EJAE's stories, who participated in the work as another composer and singer, also arouse curiosity.
You Quiz on the Block is a talk show that depicts big host Yoo Jae-seok and playful Cho Sae-ho traveling through people's lives. It airs every Wednesday at 8:45 p.m., and EJAE is scheduled to record sometime this month.
