songs?

I know these VTubers have lots of addicted fans and make tons of money off overpriced merch, and do "concerts" where they're on the screen and a few real musicians on stage play along.

And this particular cartoon character aka VTuber has been around since 2020 - my understanding is that this cartoon trend really took off during Covid.

But since the real musical talents behind KPop Demon Hunters were revealed, it would be nice to know if humans sang and wrote that song. Even though this started before genAI, it might be genAI now. Is there any info about who actually wrote and sang that song?
