You’ve Already Heard Of This K-pop Band

Even People Who Do Not Like K-pop Can Enjoy This New Movie

In articles like this, I usually do a little introduction to tell people about a piece of media that they maybe don’t know about. But like, is that really necessary for this one?

It’s K-pop Demon Hunters.

Who hasn’t heard of K-pop Demon Hunters at this point? Its music is amazing, catchy, and fun, and the animation is done in the same general style as Spider-Verse and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. From the first few scenes of this movie, I already knew it was going to be good.

It’s also a movie that, if I had to guess, is being cosplayed on an astonishing scale. The three stars of Huntrix have a multitude of detailed outfits they wear throughout the movie, and thousands of people are going to recreate each one.

Not since Arcane with Jinx and Vi (and basically everyone in that show) have I seen characters that will have as lasting cosplay power as these three. It’s actually a stunning cultural event. K-pop had already been growing in popularity in the United States, but this is going to—if it hasn’t already—jump that into the stratosphere.

It might be a kids’ movie. The title might be extremely on the nose, but as a fan of people making cool stuff, this is the movie of 2025. This is the movie of the decade.

If you somehow haven’t seen it, go become a Huntrix fan!
