The performance line-up for the 98th Academy Awards has been unveiled, revealing two major musical tributes inspired by the films “Sinners” and “KPop Demon Hunters.”

In 2026, Sonnenblick has already won a Golden Globe and a Grammy and received an Academy Award nomination for co-writing Golden, the film’s breakout track and the first K-pop song ever to win a Grammy. Speaking shortly after learning the song had been shortlisted for an Oscar, he described the moment as emotional and credited fans for the achievement.

The “KPop Demon Hunters” soundtrack has set a new milestone on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the first soundtrack ever to place four songs in the top 10 simultaneously.
