The singalong version of KPop Demon Hunters is now available on Netflix after topping the domestic box office over the weekend.

With more than 1,300 sold-out screenings across the US and Canada, the film has grossed over $18 million in only three days. Despite being available on streaming for more than two months now, Netflix's animated gem has exceeded expectations on the big screen, even beating Zach Cregger's horror movie Weapons.

EJAE, songwriter for several songs and vocalist responsible for lead character Rumi’s singing parts, made an appearance during a screening of the film last weekend (per The Hollywood Reporter).

"I'm speechless. This has all been insane. I’ve been crying a lot,” she told the crowd. The film’s breakout song, Golden, marked the first time a female group has topped the Billboard Hot 100 since Destiny’s Child in 2001.
