Does it matter if it's a fictional band? Does HUNTRIX count? They're not the only one I've heard or heard of; but they do have all my favorite K-pop songs.

HUNTR/X absolutely counts! They are a fictional band, but so is 22/7. 22/7 is a Japanese cartoon band (like HUNTR/X, like Gorillaz) that, after the anime about their (fictitious) origin story did not get a second season (or even an English translation!), they kept performing together. They have a few albums out, and now they do songs for other anime.

I strongly suspect some record producer at Sony will realise they can do this with HUNTR/X and have the three girls who sing for them (EJAE and the other two, I forget their names) make a couple whole albums as HUNTR/X before the second movie is out. That is totally possible, and it's been done before.
