It’s been a long awards season for KPop Demon Hunters songwriter EJAE, culminating in her ultimate destination, the Academy Awards. We are sat with the singing voice of Rumi, EJAE, two days before the biggest night of her life. While getting fitted for her appropriately golden Jonathan Anderson Dior dress, EJAE talks about her upcoming Oscars performance with REI AMI and AUDREY NUNA, and how this moment is so beyond her wildest dreams. As the night approaches, she reflects on the whirlwind journey that brought her here and the surreal feeling of preparing to take the stage at Hollywood’s biggest celebration of film.
