KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack has landed at No. 8 on the Billboard 200

A sharp mix of K-pop anthems and moody bangers drives this standout genre soundtrack

The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack just debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 — the highest-charting soundtrack since Wicked hit the same position back in January.

Not bad for a project that mixes K-pop flair with supernatural action.

K-pop soundtracks have become known for their polished production and genre-blending styles, drawing from EDM, hip-hop, R&B, and traditional Korean musical elements.

This mix creates dynamic, versatile albums that do more than just accompany their shows—they stand out as compelling listens in their own right.

The KPop Demon Hunters album follows this trend, balancing high-energy tracks with darker, atmospheric songs that match the show’s tone.

Rather than feeling like a random assortment, the tracklist feels intentional and cohesive.

Here’s the full tracklist:
