K-pop's biggest names are strutting their stuff at Milan Fashion Week and turning up in ultra-cool fits. Seventeen's Joshua Hong, BTS's Jin, and Stray Kids' Bang Chan were some of the K-pop idols who rolled up to the fashion week in the city. They were dressed by some of the biggest fashion houses, including Gucci and Fendi. While Hong went with a chic, neutral look, Bang opted for a bold, sheer outfit.

You're hearing an R&B intro sung a cappella by Rumi, the main character. It almost has a Mary J. Blige tragic heaviness to it. And then as the other singers come in, Zoey and Mira, what you end up with is something like an up-tempo club number. It doesn't quite go full EDM, but it does feel like it's designed for a Hamilton- esque chant along. What started as a tender, warm, introspective ballad ends up as a powerful fight song.

Normally, that wouldn't be news we would cover here at , but KPop Demon Hunters , Netflix's animated musical phenomenon, was apparently brought up during the generative AI organization's launch event for its new Korean subsidiary on Monday, September 15. Vince, a prolific K-pop producer who wrote songs performed by the film's demonic boy band group called the Saja Boys, made an appearance at the Seoul event.

In the final moments of Netflix's wildly popular KPop Demon Hunters, a K-pop group called the Saja Boys-whose members are secretly demons-celebrate an award-show victory by performing a new song called "Your Idol" for thousands of adulating fans. "Your obsession feeds our connection / So right now give me all your attention," they sing. By absorbing the frenzied reverence, the Saja Boys can break through the Honmoon, a fictional barrier that protects humans from the demon world, which would unleash chaos.

Your favorite K-pop girl group HUNTR/X is coming back for more. With the groundbreaking success of K-pop Demon Hunters on Netflix, the Billboard charts, and at the box office, there's been some chatter about getting a sequel off the ground. We need more bangers! So, here's everything we know about a Demon Hunters sequel, like what stage it's at and what it would be about.

The summer soundtrack of our family has been lifted straight out of K-Pop Demon Hunters. On long summer car rides, Sara's daughter listens with headphones, fearlessly belting along with her husband as they exchange quiet smiles in the front seat. There is a moment she always waits for - when Gen-u thanks Rumi for helping him feel again, offering her his soul. Each time, tears fill her eyes, and she reaches for her mother's hand.

When you watch KPop Demon Hunters, it is easy to see why it has become the most popular movie that Netflix has ever released. The animated musical's story about a trio of pop stars tasked with protecting humanity from monsters is familiar, but refreshingly different and infinitely more stylish than other narratives like it. The soundtrack is full of undeniable bangers that amplify the movie's gorgeous action and never let you forget that it's a celebration of Korean culture.

Megan Thee Stallion. Patti LaBelle. Kylie Minogue. Two-fifths of the Spice Girls. These are just a smattering of the multiplatinum sellers in the all-singing, all-dancing trailer for KPOPPED, which, honestly, looked epic. If I had been reviewing this new Lionel Richie-produced singing contest based on those 109 seconds alone complete with roaring stage pyrotechnics and Megan performing a K-pop version of her smash hit Savage it would have been an easy five stars. Sadly, the series that follows isn't quite as irresistible.

The format reminds me of PE lessons. You know how gym teachers split groups of friends up, so they concentrate? Here, Korean boy and girl groups such as JO1 and Blackswan are split in half. Each half works with a famous western pop artist, re-tooling their best-known song in K-pop mode. The resulting performances are voted for by the studio audience, and the winner gets well, nothing.
