Did you happen to know that the person who voiced "Humtrix Rumi" in "KPop Demon Hunters" was a UIUC alum?

Did you know that the person who voiced Humtrix Rumi in KPop Demon Hunters went to UIUC?

Rumi is the main character of K-Pop Demon Hunters. In the story, she is the leader and main vocalist of the world-renowned K-Pop group HUNTR/X. She is the daughter of Ryu Mi-young, a member of the previous generation of hunters, the Sunlight Sisters. After Ryu Mi-young's death, she was taken in and raised by Celine, Ryu Mi-young's colleague.

I am so glad to hear Arden Cho's real voice as an alumna of UIUC.

"KPop Demon Hunters" is Netflix's most original successful movie. The film's lead actress, Arden Cho, is a University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign graduate. Cho sat down for an exclusive interview with Illinois Public Media reporter Emily Hays to talk about her Midwest roots and what inspired her portrayal of "Rumi." 

Below is the cover of FREE by Arden Cho and Cha Eun-woo:

I tried to hide, but something broke
I tried to sing, couldn't hit the notes
The words kept catching in my throat
I tried to smile, I was suffocating though
But here with you, I can finally breathe
You say you're no good, but you're good for me
I've been hoping to change, now I know we can change
But I won't if you're not by my side
Why does it feel right every time I let you in?
Why does it feel like I can tell you anything?
All the secrets that keep me in chains, and
All the damage that might make me dangerous
You got a dark side, guess you're not the only one
What if we both tried fighting what we're running from?
We can't fix it if we never face it
What if we find a way to escape it?
We could be free, free
We can't fix it if we never face it
Let the past be the past 'til it's weightless
Oh, time goes by, and I lose perspective
Yeah, hope only hurts, so I just forget it
But you're breaking through all the dark in me
When I thought that nobody could
And you're waking up all these parts of me
That I thought were buried for good
Between imposter and this monster, I've been lost inside my head
Ain't no choice when all these voices keep me pointing towards no end
It's just easy when I'm with you
No one sees me the way you do
I don't trust it, but I want to
I keep coming back to
Why does it feel right every time I let you in?
Why does it feel like I can tell you anything?
We can't fix it if we never face it
What if we find a way to escape it?
We could be free, free
We can't fix it if we never face it
Let the past be the past 'til it's weightless
Oh-oh, so take my hand, it's open (free, free)
What if we heal what's broken? (Free, free)
I tried to hide, but something broke
I couldn't sing, but you give me hope
We can't fix it if we never face it
