Signing and New Single

Audrey Nuna, the 27-year-old vocalist who rose to prominence as the voice of Mira in the animated series *KPop Demon Hunters*, has entered a recording agreement with Republic Records. The partnership will debut with her single “superHuman,” which drops at midnight ET on Friday. The track was produced by Grammy-winning producer Cirkut and serves as the official song for the 2026 Valorant Champions Tour, continuing Nuna’s collaborations with the esports franchise after the earlier release “Toxic.”

Career Background

Nuna launched her music career in 2018 with independent releases before signing with Arista, issuing two projects including the 2024 album *Trench*. In 2025 she joined the trio Huntr/x—alongside Ejae and Rei Ami—for the soundtrack of *KPop Demon Hunters*, which earned an Oscar for Best Original Song for “Golden” earlier this year. Following that accolade, she embarked on a global festival circuit, performing at Japan’s Summer Sonic, Austria’s Frequency Festival, and Belgium’s Pukkelpop through the month’s end.

Official Statement

She described “superHuman” as a “portal” reflecting a period of rapid personal change, emphasizing themes of redemption, validation, and the power of staying human amid transformation.

Upcoming Appearances

Beyond the single’s release, Nuna’s schedule includes live shows at major festivals across Asia and Europe. The Valorant Champions Tour partnership will feature the song in tournament broadcasts and promotional material, extending its reach to the esports audience.
