The 110-minute film by Korean-Canadian director Maggie Kang won an award for "Best Animated Feature" and also received a gong for "Best Song" with its main theme song, "Golden" at the 31st prestigious awards which "honor the finest in cinematic and television achievement."
By beating competitors from traditional animation powerhouses like Disney and Pixar, the film has boosted its chances as a strong contender in the run-up to the Academy Awards in mid-March, as these awards are often considered the "most accurate predictor" of the Oscars.
"KPop Demon Hunters" tells the story of fictional K-pop superstars who possess secret powers to protect their fans from supernatural threats.
Its soundtrack has been hugely successful, spending several weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 albums chart, with "Golden" reaching the top spot on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart.
