Since its release, KPop Demon Hunters has become more than just a film — it has grown into a global phenomenon with an increasingly growing lineup of merchandise. The film has expanded beyond the screen with Mattel dolls, Little People Collector Sets, Squishmallows and even a Vans sneaker collab. And now, you can get ramen noodles inspired by the HUNTR/X members.
Yes, KPop Demon Hunters is getting in the ramen game with a new collaboration with South Korean instant noodle company Nongshim. The Seoul-based company (originally known as the Lotte Food Industrial Company) has been using the Netflix animated film to promote its line of packaged goods for a while now in Korea (see the photo below of when I went for a visit to Myeongdong), and now, Americans can get their hands on the same products state-side.

Tim Chan/Billboard
The collection features unique ramen flavors inspired by Rumi, Zoey and Mira, with each character represented by a signature flavor and a uniquely colored cup that reflects their identity. The noodle theme also connects directly to the movie, in which HUNTR/X members are seen enjoying noodles together during moments between concerts and demon-hunting.
SPICY & SMOKY
6-Pack
Inspired by Rumi’s superstar qualities, this Shin Ramyun cup features a “superstar” flavor, with a spicy broth with savory ham and meaty notes.

HAMBURGER TASTE
6-Pack
Zoey’s “Burger Hero” flavor combines Shin Ramyun noodles with a savory hamburger-inspired broth featuring rich, smoky notes.
The chewy noodles pair with the bold seasoning for a familiar yet spicy ramen experience. A vegetable flake packet includes bok choy, mushroom, carrot, green onion and red chili pepper to add texture and depth. Each cup in this six-pack is ready in minutes with boiling water or microwave preparation.
GOURMET SPICY
6-Pack
Mira’s “Spicy Queen” Shin Ramyun cup delivers the signature heat and savory depth that you’d expect from Shin Ramyun and the HUNTR/X lead dancer.
The bold spicy broth is paired with firm, chewy noodles that absorb the rich flavors with every bite. A dried garnish packet adds vegetables, color and aroma to enhance the overall ramen experience.
BEEF-FLAVORED
6-Pack
With HUNTR/X branding, this Shin Ramyun cup features a rich beef-flavored broth with the signature spicy taste that made the brand popular worldwide.

SAJA BOYS RAMEN
6-Pack

Ella Bright just became Niall Horan‘s latest collaborator without even realizing it.
In an adorable video posted by Island Records, the Off Campus star reacts to the Irish singer/songwriter surprising her with a new version of her “Baby Now That I Found You” cover that features his added vocals.
In the clip, Bright sits at a table and is handed a phone. After pressing play on a video, she looks shocked to see Horan onscreen.
“You don’t know this yet, but you’re about to listen to our version of ‘Baby Now That I Found You,’” he tells her.
The updated version of the track then plays as the singer/actress incredulously takes it in. “Oh my god, this is so wild,” she gushes. “Oh my god, that’s beautiful! I’m obsessed.”
Bright also compared the surprise duet to Horan’s 2016 Billboard Hot 100 top 20 hit “This Town” — “That’s, like, my favorite song” — before taking a moment to fangirl. “I’ve got a song with Niall Horan,” she cheers. “That’s actually wild.”
The track, originally a No. 11-peaking Hot 100 1968 hit by The Foundations, is featured on Off Campus, which premiered on Prime Video in May and quickly became one of the buzziest coming-of-age romance series of the year. Music is a core fixture of the show, as Bright plays a classical music major named Hannah. She’s recorded several other songs for its soundtrack, while hits by everyone from Elton John to Audrey Hobert have seen major streaming gains thanks to their inclusion on the show.
The duet is a bonus track on Island’s Off Campus: The Mixtape (Extra Credit Edition), which arrived late Thursday. The new release features six additional tracks, including new covers by Suki Waterhouse, The Beaches and Carol Ades.
Horan’s addition to the Off Campus universe comes on the heels of his new album, Dinner Party, which debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard 200.
Watch Horan surprise Bright and listen to their new duet below.

McRae’s involvement follows a breakthrough period for the singer, who has evolved from a teenage songwriter uploading music to YouTube into one of pop’s biggest young performers. Her 2020 hit “You Broke Me First” marked her first Billboard Hot 100 appearance, while her dynamic choreography and emotional songwriting have become key parts of her identity as an artist.
The singer recently completed her Miss Possessive arena tour, which grossed $110.8 million, according to Billboard Boxscore, and was named a Billboard Women in Music Hitmaker. She is also preparing new music and will headline Chicago’s Lollapalooza this summer.
Mernes joins McRae following her own rise in Latin pop. The Argentine artist launched her solo career with “Recalienta” in 2019 before releasing her debut album Tú crees en mí? (“Do you believe in me?”) in 2022 through Sony Music Latin. The eight-track project, which includes collaborations with Tiago PZK and Duki, helped solidify Mernes’ place in the music industry.
The Adidas Originals Sport collection is available online and in retail stores, with prices ranging from $45 to $70.

Larsson is set to perform at Lollapalooza and All Things Go this summer, while songs from Midnight Sun continue finding new listeners after being featured throughout the latest season of Love Island USA. Between her chart success, sold-out Depop drop and Y2K-inspired merch, Zara Larsson’s latest era proves she’s entering one of the biggest chapters of her career yet.
Sarah Hardwig knew exactly what she was doing when she covered Lainey Wilson’s “Heart Like A Truck” on America’s Got Talent.
Hardwig has a heart like a Mack Truck, an 18-wheeler.
Raised in Naples, Florida, and now based in Nashville, TN, Hardwig was born blind, diagnosed at just 5 months of age with a genetic eye condition, Leber’s Congenital Amaurosis.
“Music has always played an important role in my life,” she explained at the top of her audition. “And I want to prove to the world that regardless of whether you have a disability or not, you can do absolutely anything that you set your mind to.”
The 23-year-old lives it and led by example with her performance, which aired Tuesday night, July 21. Several minutes later, Hardwig, overflowing with emotion and energy, admitted she felt “amazing.”
Everyone in the room felt the same thing.
“That was beautiful and heartwarming,” remarked Howie Mandel, “and you are the epitome of resilience to show up here and to sing your heart out and to move three or four thousand strangers in this room and hopefully millions of people at home, I love your message and I love your energy and this show is about inspiration and you’re inspiring.”
Spice Girl Mel B agreed. “Sarah, you’ve got a really good voice young lady. Your trills and the way you control your voice is on-point,” she remarked. Mel B also dished out some criticism. The hopeful has more to give, she noted, and her next song selection should be “even bigger.”
Forget that, chimed in Sofía Vergara. “Everything you did was amazing. I wouldn’t change a thing. Your voice, the song, I think we all fell in love with you and everybody else is going to fall in love with you.”
Simon Cowell, as he tends to do, spoke last. “I understood where Mel was going,” he suggested. “Our auditions are our first introduction. However, that was a really, really good audition. I really hope this boosts your confidence, because you really, really have a natural gift.”
Hardwig earned four “yeses” from the judges, a standing ovation 4,000-plus folks in the room, and progress in this 21st season of AGT.
This isn’t Hardwig’s first rodeo. In 2023, she won the Tennessee Songwriters Showcase, was tapped to participate in The Acoustic Guitar Project at the Country Music Hall of Fame, has won a Danny Award for musicians with disabilities, and last year made her debut at The Grand Ole Opry.
AGT airs Tuesday evening on NBC and next day on Peacock.

In the week’s leading up to the 30th anniversary of his death, Macy’s is honoring Tupac Shakur with a graphic tee.
Band and music-inspired tees continue to dominate casual wardrobes, and this Cotton On Tupac shirt pays tribute to the legendary rapper with a Me Against the World graphic on a faded slate backdrop. Made from 100% cotton with a relaxed box fit and available in sizes 2XS-L, it delivers an intentionally oversized, vintage-inspired look.
VINTAGE-INSPIRED
Handmade piece
Crochet bags are one of this summer’s biggest handbag trends, with Prada spearheading the fad. We also saw fruit prints having a micro-trend moment earlier this summer, too.
Combine this summer’s crochet and fruit fads with The Sak’s Lanie crochet tote. This hand-crocheted bag is made from yarn and come with a roomy zippered interior and both top handles and an adjustable crossbody strap. Measuring 12 by 15 inches, it’s spacious enough for everyday essentials while maintaining an effortless warm-weather aesthetic.
BAND TEE
Sizes M-2XL
Hot take: Everyone has a Journey band tee. No? Well, this one is available for 40% off at Macy’s.
Journey merchandise continues to resonate with longtime fans and younger generations alike, thanks in part to Don’t Stop Believin’ finding a wider audience through The Sopranos finale and later Glee. This Lucky Brand graphic tee features an oversized Journey 1981 print on a classic-fit silhouette with a comfortable crewneck. Available in men’s sizes M-2XL, the cotton-blend shirt is an easy everyday staple for rock fans.
NOISE CANCELING
Available in three colorways
For under $50, the Baseus Bass BH1 NC packs premium features usually found in pricier headphones.
Adaptive hybrid active noise cancellation reduces up to 45dB of background noise, while LDAC Hi-Res audio delivers more detailed wireless sound on compatible devices. The on-ear headphones come with up to 80 hours of battery life (55 with ANC enabled), memory foam ear cushions and three color options: black, pink and starlight off-white.
MACY’S EXCLUSIVE
Sizes 2XS-XL
The Rolling Stones’ iconic tongue-and-lips logo has remained one of music’s most recognizable graphics for decades.
This Macy’s-exclusive band tee has a soft cotton-blend fabric and a classic crewneck silhouette. Available in women’s sizes 2XS-XL, the tee pairs effortlessly with denim, shorts or a slip skirt for an off-duty look.
THE BEATLES BAND TEE
Sizes XS-XL
You may have to wait until 2028 for Sam Mendes’ ambitious four-part Beatles film series, but this vintage-inspired tee lets fans celebrate the band’s 1967 hit now.
Featuring a light green mineral-wash finish and strawberry artwork inspired by Strawberry Fields Forever, the soft cotton-blend shirt nods to one of The Beatles‘ most influential songs. Available in women’s sizes XS-XL.

BAND TEE
Sizes S-3XL
Few band logos are as instantly recognizable as AC/DC’s lightning bolt design, and this officially licensed graphic tee gives it a creative twist (but you’ll have to look closer to appreciate it).
The AC/DC artwork is made entirely from the band’s song titles and career-defining imagery. Printed in the U.S. on soft cotton and available in men’s sizes S-3XL, it’s an easy everyday pick for fans of classic hard rock.
GRAPHIC TEE
Sizes S-M
A solid graphic t-shirt is hard to beat, especially when it’s inspired by one of rock’s most recognizable albums.
The last Pink Floyd record to feature all four members of the classic lineup, The Wall album graphic is displayed on a classic black tee on lightweight, 100% cotton. Designed with a classic crew neck and regular fit, it’s available in sizes S–M and machine washable for easy care.
