With just days to go before 'KPop Demon Hunters' makes its global debut, OTT has revealed a final sneak peek that promises an action-packed, music-fueled showdown between rising K-pop idols and their demonic rivals. Teaming up with Sony Pictures Animation, the new animated musical brings the spotlight to Huntrix — a fearless K-pop girl group on a mission to win back their fans and dominate the stage at the legendary Idol Awards.
The latest preview showcases the girls preparing for their biggest performance yet. To defeat their supernatural enemies, the Saja Boys, they must level up their game and create a diss track powerful enough to expose the truth. As the stakes rise, the clip teases intense rehearsals, dazzling visuals, and strong group dynamics between lead characters Rumi, Mira, and Zoey, voiced by Arden Cho, May Hong, and Ji-young Yoo.

The Vision Behind 'KPop Demon Hunters'
Directed by Chris Appelhans ('Wish Dragon') and Maggie Kang ('The LEGO Ninjago Movie'), 'KPop Demon Hunters' has been in the works since 2021. The screenplay, built from Maggie Kang’s original concept, was brought to life with the help of co-writers Danya Jimenez and Hannah McMechan. As a devoted K-pop fan herself, Kang poured her love for the genre into every detail, blending genuine cultural elements with a playful, high-energy tone that captures the spirit of K-pop while delivering something fresh and wildly entertaining.
She previously explained that the cast was instrumental in shaping the film’s emotional tone and humour. According to Kang, actors like Byung Hun Lee and Ahn Hyo-seop brought heartfelt K-drama depth to their roles, while Cho, Hong, and Yoo delivered performances that balanced star-like charisma with the relatability of young women managing an extraordinary double life.
