How It’s Done -HUNTRIX
Following up on our previous post about ‘Golden‘, I will be posting about the Korean lyrics of How It’s Done by, the opening track of HUNTRIX, along with the real artists behind it. The singers behind HUNTR/X proved the popularity of KPOP Demon Hunters by appearing on the popular U.S. talk show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. On the show, the three performers showcased the entire live performance of Golden.
Members of Huntrix
Rumi
As the leader and main vocalist, Rumi is central to the team’s story. Her character is half-human, half-demon, constantly struggling with identity and belonging. This emotional tension shines through her vocal delivery in How It’s Done.
Voiced by Arden Cho
Mira
Mira is the team’s main dancer, known for her rebellious streak and charisma. She often clashes with Rumi, but shares the same goal: keeping the team strong. Her character was directly inspired by Korean model Ahn So-yeon, as confirmed by director Maggie Kang.

Zoey
Zoey, the youngest, brings warmth and humor to the group dynamic. Her rap lines are playful yet bold, reflecting her confidence.

Full Lyrics of “How It’s Done” by HUNTR/X
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, 뼈 속부터 달라서
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 (Na-na-na-na)
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
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
(Hey) Huntrix don’t miss
How it’s done, done, done
(Hey) Huntrix 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
Huntrix 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?
이제야 포기해, 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 killin’, we bring it, 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)
Huntrix, show this how it’s done, done, done
We hunt you down, down, down (Down)
(Done, done, done)
We got you now, now, now (Got you now)
(Done, done, done)
We show you how, how, how (Show you how)
Huntrix, don’t miss, how it’s done, done, done
