Legends Podcast #772; KPop Demon Hunters (2025)

Legends Podcast is heading to Korea for Netflix's most successful original release ever! Based on - holy moley - this is an original I.P.?! It's not a comic or video game? Wow! Based on an original idea by co-director Maggie Kang, this 2025 film from Sony Pictures Animation centers on an all-girl trio of K-pop superstars who also happen to be their generation's protectors from an ever-present invasion of demons from the underworld. Uniting the world in song, these K-pop demon hunters headlined the most-watched original title in Netflix history, leading to the widest release by number of theaters for a Netflix film, and the first Netflix flick to top the box office in the United States. The soundtrack was the first to have four songs in the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, and the film brought home the Golden Globe and Academy Awards for Best Original Song and Best Animated Feature. Now we're k-ashing in on the k-phenomenon that is KPop Demon Hunters!
