Song of the Day, 4/2/2026

[Bob Schroeck]

I am incredibly surprised that no one has suggested this previously. In fact, I just spent the last 20 minutes searching the boards to make sure I hadn't overlooked or forgotten a recommendation, but other than two fic links, this is basically the first time Kpop Demon Hunters has been mentioned here. I will admit that I haven't actually seen the film yet -- getting Peggy to stop watching her European crime dramas long enough to watch something else with me is a superhuman task that I have to date failed at -- but I've fallen in love with this song. So much so that I find myself re-choreographing the Ministry Battle to use it. If I'm forced to choose between it and Sergey Lazarev's "You Are The Only One", I honestly don't know which I'll pick.



Ugh, you came at a bad time
But you just crossed the line
You wanna get wild?
Okay, I'll show you wild

Better come right, better luck tryin'
Gettin' to our level
'Cause you might die, never the time,
Tryna start a battle
Bleeding isn't in my blood
뼛속부터 달라서 (Because we are different to the very core)

Beating you is what I do, do, do, yeah

Body on body, I'm naughty,
Not even sorry
And when you pull up, I'll pull up
A little late to the party (la-la-la-la)

Locked and loaded, I was born for this
There ain't no point in avoiding it
Annoyed? A bit
불을 비춰, 다 비켜, 네 앞길을 뺏겨 (Shine the light—get out of the way, or lose the path ahead.)

Knocking you out like a lullaby
Hear that sound ringing in your mind
Better sit down for the show
'Cause I'm gonna show you
How it's done, done, done

HUNTR/X don't miss
How it's done, done, done
(Hey) HUNTR/X don't quit
How it's done, done, done

Run, run, we run the town
Whole world playin' our sound
Turnin' up, it's goin' down
HUNTR/X show this,
How it's done, done, done

Yeah, something about when you come for the crown
That's so humbling, huh?
갑자기 왜 그래? 먼저 건드려, 왜? (Why are you acting like this all of a sudden? Why did you provoke me first?)
이제야 포기해 what? (You're only giving up now? What?)

Nothing to us, run up,
You're done up, we come up
From sunup to sundown,
So come out to play
Won either way,
We're one in a million
We kill 'em, like, really? You want it? Okay.

Heels, nails, blade, mascara
Fit check for my napalm era
Need to beat my face, make it cute and savage
Mirror, mirror on my phone, who's the baddest?
(Us, hello?)

Knocking you out like a lullaby
Hear that sound ringing in your mind
Better sit down for the show
'Cause I'm gonna show you
(I'm gonna show you)
(I'm gonna show you)
How it's done, done, done

I don't talk, but I bite, full of venom (uh)
Spittin' facts, you know that's
How it's done, done, done

Okay, like, I know I ramble
But when shootin' my words, I go Rambo
Took blood, sweat, and tears to look natural (uh)
That's how it's done, done, done

Hear our voice unwavering
'Til our song defeats the night
Makin' fear afraid to breathe
'Til the dark meets the light

(How it's done, done, done)
Run, run, we run the town (Done, done, done)
Whole world playin' our sound (Done, done, done)
Turnin' up, it's going down (Done, done, done)
HUNTR/X, show this,
How it's done, done, done

We hunt you down, down, down, down (down)
We got you now, now, now, now (got you now)
We show you how, how, how (show you how)
HUNTR/X don't miss,
How it's done, done, done
