KPOP Demon Hunters Trailer Drops: Netflix’s Animated Musical Adventure Premieres June 20
K-pop fans and anime lovers, get ready—Netflix just dropped the official trailer for KPOP Demon Hunters, a new animated feature from Sony Pictures Animation. The film premieres globally on June 20, and if the trailer is any indication, this is going to be a genre-blending thrill ride packed with music, magic, and high-energy visuals.
Directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, this action-fantasy musical follows three K-pop idols who double as secret demon hunters. It’s stylish, it’s funny, and it’s got some serious star power behind it.
What Is KPOP Demon Hunters About?
At the heart of the movie are three pop queens: Rumi, Mira, and Zoey. By day, they’re selling out arenas and dazzling fans with their dance moves. But when night falls, they’re out battling supernatural threats—protecting their fans from demons lurking just out of sight.
Their biggest challenge? A mysterious boy band that’s actually a group of demons in disguise.
The plot leans heavily into K-pop culture, and the vibe is a mash-up of high-stakes fantasy and musical flair. It’s the kind of film that feels made for both longtime K-pop stans and animation fans who love a good twist.
